Nice little tune-up for the big mare

Time to go HOME now … and let it all hang out…

The notion that Zenyatta is the greatest horse of all time is the greatest mass misunderstanding of reality since people thought the world was flat.

While her place in history is grossly exaggerated, there's no denying that it takes a special horse to implement that particular running style and still own a perfect record (no matter who the competition may be). Horses that spot the field open lengths at the break EVERY time out, are bound to 'reap what they sew', sooner or later.

I find it compelling that her career's most interesting litmus test also doubles as her swan song. Those that knock her have ample opportunity to bet against her at the end of the month.

I think she's going to win the Classic (if they don't puss out, big if). But if she does, she'll be the most overbet Classic winner in history.

Ok stupid now your jumping on the zenyatta band wagon! Are you kidding me just a few days ago you said rail trip was better! What happened? Hell i was impressed how fly down did in first attempt against older. As for you people still bashing zenyatta, are you kidding me! Shes won 19 RACES IN A ROW! I don't care who you are that is impressive! She's amazing and it seems like she like to toy with the horses up until the last moment and then kicks in and goodbye! One more race to go! She wins the classic, she is one of the best ever! Go zenyatta!
