Rachel tried a lot of new things this year--let's give her credit for the things she did this year over last .

Lose.

Never ran in a G1 until August.

Had races invented and tailored for her .

Did not run against the males she " demolished " last year.--or any males at all

Acquired a " big, new body "--ostensibly from Earl Scheib

Forgot her blinding acceleration at the far turn

Screwed up her lead changes



You Retchelistas sure have some nerve mocking the Zentards all right .

Zenyatta has indeed run in the same crap G1s as last year---boring, unimaginative, but perfect. And yes, she only shipped once .

She has held her form and her condition., and her body also got bigger each year--or didn't anyone notice ??.

Frequent flyer miles, changes of equipment, and your hopes and snark are not going to change Rachel into last year's model .

That said, I fervently hope she wins Sunday and goes to the Classic .
