By this logic, I commend the connections of Quality Road and Summer Bird for attempting to try pro-ride last year, and for the one that didn't. I'll leave that up to whomever wants to view reality through rose colored glasses.

i commend them as well. they definitely could have used another good race on their resume, it's a shame it didn't work out for them. and looking thru rose colored glasses is similar imo to those who look purely thru biased ones, who won't give some their due because they're afraid it will detract from others.

So what are you looking through with Zenyatta? Did someone take a giant rose colored vase and just plant it over your head? Probably restricts the oxygen. We should call somebody for you. (I kid. Sort of. Ish.)

Sorry, I really am because it's really painful to be still talking about this; however the only time I bring it up, present tense is when someone uses some contradictory argument. As for them meeting in the future, not unless Jess enters her in the Classic and observing the way they have mapped out her campaign this year, it doesn't look likely it will ever happen. But who knows Jess is especially kooky this year, and his Schizophrenia may kick in at any time.

i doubt they ever meet. altho the fans may want it, it seems the owners don't.

Correction, one owner didn't, that we do know.

no, neither wants to. not sure why the onus falls only on jackson. there have been opportunities for these horses to meet. why it's ok for the mosses to refuse to ship, but not jackson is beyond me. oh, wait. i know why. it's because those who are firmly in one camp refuse to see the situation clearly. and that goes for either camp.

You, Riot & Booth are all so similar. Are you guys the same person who use different username's?

I think you are mistaken Antitrust, I don't know if you have noticed lately but I rarely mention Rachel in Zenyatta conversations of late; however I do notice it is one of the favorite past times of the Rachelites here. I don't know why you would say I am doing a Riot(excuse me I've seen the name but who is this poster?) and SO who does his thing here, which in my opinion is a healthy balance to the fanclub that once was so bullish a year ago. Fact is I've moved on, I corrected Danzig when she said both didn't seem to want to meet, when infact Moss shipped in to the Apple Blossom and Jackson backed out. This is a fact, you know this, I don't see why you would infer it is not true. Furthermore Jess knows where to find Moss later this year, the ball is in his vacillating court.

It's heartwarming how the RA fans rally round their Horse of the Year after yet another meaningless win. It's almost as if each of these wins somehow erases the fact that she was a NO SHOW when it counted. Didn't make the trip. Too busy licking her wounds after LITTLE Z jacked her up in LA. Then again, not showing up is why she's still around today. I mean :

"We're not going to run," Mitchell said. "I blew her out at Hollywood Park and I brought her down here and she's body sore and stiff. If I were to blame it on anything, I'd blame it on taking on Zenyatta."

It was precisely fear of the above that caused ASSMan and Jackson to soil their pants at the thought of honoring their commitment and showing up at OP.

ha ha ha

She did, however, get a 110; or 105; or 102; or whatever the **** ---- she's STILL FASTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

altho some may have enjoyed it, i doubt most horse fans did. it was a meaningless, prove nothing win. but rehashing last year and continuing ad nauseaum about oaklawn does nothing to show you're an unbiased critic of what is actually occurring. your same song, 17th verse is no more helpful than reading the few who acutally thought yesterdays race was a good showing, or an effort by the 'real' rachel. you're a real laugh riot of the paddock.
