8/28 (DMR) Pacific Classic S. (G1)

You rachel lovers are all Z haters.

She can do something never done before, namely, win a race named after herself.

How can you not understand the glory in this? This will surely stamp her as an all time great.

It's sad that you Z haters just can't appreciate her for what she is.

Actually, I think Petty Officer (GB, 1967) won the race that was renamed for him after he won it a few times.

There are bad Grade 1 fields, and then there is this.

this field is so bad that the grading commission for races would be justified in making this into a grade 3

What do you guys want? A race with 4 entries so that you could sit in the granstand munching popcorn as a spectator waiving your Go Zenyatta banners?. Its a great betting race. Too bad the countries best cant make it to the Pacific Classic but thats why there is the Breeders Cup.

Hey Guano,

Do you ever have an opinion about a race before the fact, look at the title of the thread. What does this have to do with the Pacific Classic discussion?

[RockHardTen1985]

If anyone was wondering....
I will be picking the Classic 2,4,7 in some order, with the 4 likely being 3rd.

Can't believe this is a grade 1.


Battle of Hastings I guess. Just horrible. God awful.

2 Isle of Giant's

What's worse than this race ( oh, hi Debbie) are these posts.

I think this Giants Causeway claimer has a legit shot. Check out the likely pace sceniro.

I would if he was trained by a juicer. Cecil is just horrible. Either he's as honest as they come or retarded.

Isn't Temple City going to hamper his chances a bit? As much as I'd like to see a horse win the Pacific Classic 3 races after winning a 25k claimer, he seems outmatched in there.

I want no part of The Usual QT or Awesome Gem. Hold Me Back is interesting and I think he's going to hit the board. I'm between Hold Me Back, Battle of Hastings and I think Crowded House is interesting at a price.

Hold Me Back and Richard's Kid are the only two horses that don't have major flaws in my opinion. From memory because I haven't looked at PP's

1) I think I heard Mullins was O-fer the meet today, all eyes must be on him, No
2) Didn't quit last time but no thank you
3) No
4) Need 7 turns
5) No
6) Win over surface and distance
7) Same as 6 although not the specific Del Mar surface
8) No idea who he even is
9) Trip of a lifetime last time
10) Drugs already talked about him 0-fer

Even though 3 back Temple City went very fast early, look at his last 2 races. He is out there crawling. Plus look at the jock, then think about the Rail Trip debacle. I think Isle of Giants has to clear early from the inside with P Val... Maybe he runs away from them, kinda like Mast Track.

I think Giant's Causeway himself would have a legit shot in this race. Even at 13 and off a 10-year layoff. He'd have to be at least second choice. He's won as many times on the synthetic as the favorite right?

I think Hold Me Back is the most likely winner, but the other horse could be like 6x the price.
