And then proceeds to beat the mighty Rinterval by a desperate head. Surely she was thinking "ZOMG this'll totes get the Rachelites hopez up LOL" the whole stretch. In addition to her dance moves, she also has a sharp sense of humor too!

That race hands down had to of been the worst G1 field in the history of horse racing. Everyone involved in putting that race together and being apart of it should hang their heads in shame. That was NOT horse racing. It was a sham and Zenyatta was almost embarrassed.

It's Polytrack... the most perverted of all the brands of synthetic.

On Cushion or Pro-Ride she beats the piss out of Rinterval and Anabaa's Creation by 4 or more very convincing lengths, instead of winning in a dog fight.

Even if the race dynamics don't suit her - she just beat a horse who's lost 20 out of her last 21 races by about a neck.

The race was a workout for her. What exactly did you want to see out of her? The 2nd horse set a ridiculously slow pace and was inside, while Z was widest on the turn, moved too soon, and gained the lead with the length of the stretch yet to be run. For me, it's enough that she maintained an easy advantage to the wire under less than advantageous conditions.

You've never seen a bad horse beat a much better one under similar dynamics?

There's a whole lot of almost beating her.They haven't actually done it. If she wins in a romp, the maggots won't come watch her show next time.

But those glorified claiming horses she races against shouldn't be sniffing her a$$, right?? They shouldn't be almost beating her if shes as great as you all say she is.

Again, the usual post race comments have become quite tiresome. She probably has two races left to run in her career (both on dirt?). Just wondering what horses are you predicting to beat her.

You've never been around a brutal Narcissist. All you people are pssd about her, but you tune in to get your punishment. You all think (for at least a couple seconds each race) that you might have her beat. Then she punishes you yet again. Most of ya been trying to get her beat for what? 10 races? She punishes you, but also wants to keep giving you hope. That way, she knows you'll come back for another beating. You have a huge shot at beating her with BLAME, but don't bet money that you need.

Come now Scuds you mean to tell me this hasn't been fun for you, as we watch Rail Trip, Quality Road, and Rachel Alex all come crashing down to earth. Here comes Blame now as the logical contender. LOL

What is so silly is that many of you keep making the same silly arguments that you were making last year. You all thought that she wasn't anything special because she wasn't beating much and she wasn't winning by big margins. You all thought she had little or no chance in the BC Classic.

After she stepped up and won the BC Classic, I would have thought that that would be enough for you to realize that you were wrong and that her winning margins and her level of competition are pretty much meaningless. Her win in the BC Classic proved that there's more in the tank than she's showing. And yet here you go again making this same argument that she must not be that good because she's beating mediocre competition by small margins. I just don't get it. The BC Classic proved that that argument is wrong and yet you guys still make that same argument.

I'm not saying that she's the greatest horse ever. I'm simply saying that you can't measure her based on these races because she is clearly capable of doing more as she proved in the BC Classic.
