They are taking show betting? With a horse who is 1-10 on the morning line?

Meet the 2010 Apple Blossom group that Zenyatta beat:













To be fair ... Zenyatta did have to carry 123lbs - and give a massive 3 to 6 pound weight break away to these fine runners.

Yes, she has nothing at all to prove as a dirt horse. After all - she's won on it twice. Once against Brownie Points .. and once against whats posted above.

And she's beaten several worse fields in California - than what she faced in the Apple Blossom .. but the difference is that no one doubts her ability as an all-time great American rubber horse.

DOug why are you wasting your time with this? Its one of your biggest bullshit, WORSE ARGUMENTS EVER. She traveled, why does it matter who she beat? It was a G1, a race with SOLID HISTORY, anyone ANYONE COULD HAVE SHOWN UP, and NO ON DID. Its really bothers me that you continue with this crap argument.

Joe, do you think she's the best female dirt horse of all-time?

No I said a few weeks ago, I thought horses like Banshee Breeze, Beautiful Pleasure and Azeri were as good, if not better. I really believe the Icon Project we saw last summer would have beat both of them at 10f, but in the question who is better Rachel or Z, I think its CLEARLY Z.

Crazy little thought/question. Any chance JJ scratches RA due to the extreme heatwave that will be hitting the east coast tomorrow? I personally think that the whole card could have been in jeporady if RA wasn't scheduled to run. But you would think that it's a huge money day for Monmouth and they would cringe just given the thought.
Is this just a crazy talk or could it be a reality?

Supposed to be in the low-100's up and down the East Coast tomorrow. Good question.

We are getting that heat today. It's brutal, no doubt. I'm feeling ill from it.

Oceanport should be a couple degrees less than say Newark though tomorrow, so perhaps that will keep them from calling it.

You can always feel the heat in Newark.

Damn right. Funny story. My car was stolen in Newark right after I graduated from college. I had a 1991 Ford Explorer and the door wouldn't close all the way because I had been rear ended and the frame was bent. The ignition would work with pretty much any key. So I run into an office at Rutgers-Newark campus and when I come out 10 minutes later, no car. Flag down a police officer, I tell him the story and as we are talking it comes over the radio "we got a white Ford Explorer with the door open in the middle of Washington", he says "is that it?" "yup" so I hop in the cruiser and we get the car.
