There is little evidence that she is the best horse racing this year.

From past experiance I would say Somerfrost is as good a judge of a race horse as anyone here, he knows the differance from a 5K racer and a multipal grade 1 winner.

Which is more than some can say.

But wait! There's more!
Shirreffs Talks Zenyatta


On Zenyatta’s 2010 campaign, which was different than the one the Mosses talked about when they decided to keep her in training:
“I think (the Mosses’ comments) were a little bit misinterpreted because we race in California, which is on the other side of the Rockies. So it’s a little different shipping around California than it is on the East Coast. We wanted to have the opportunity to let other people see her; which was obviously one of the reasons we went to Oaklawn Park with her. But when you have to decide where to go again, it’s tough to turn down a grade I race and take her somewhere else when California supports her and stables her and takes care of her.”

On deciding not to take on males in California this year:
“I really didn’t consider it at all because I always thought we would do the same thing as we did last year; hoping to have her peaked at the Breeders’ Cup Classic and not do anything that would cause any interference with that.”

On whether there is a scenario where they wouldn’t race her in the BC Classic, including an off track:
“I don’t really want to talk about that because Churchill Downs has a real ability to handle water. So I think we have to wait and see.”

On his disappointment if she would not win Horse of the Year in 2010, even if she loses the BC Classic:
“I would think it would be almost too much. For what she does for the industry for the last three years, I would say that would be a real slap in the face. Not only on performance but what’s she’s done for racing.”

On being reminded that Quality Road, Lookin At Lucky, and Blame could all make very good cases for Horse of the Year with a win in the BC Classic:
“I think I said exactly what I wanted to say.”

"She’s going to go off to the pasture and she’s either 19-for-20 or 20-for-20. I think she’s going to be okay.”

Yup... sounds like they are telegraphing a clear message that they plan to back out

I'm thinking it's like the use of foreshadowing in film.

It could mean if she loses the BC but it could, in Zenyattaspeak*, mean something else.


* TM pending.

I have no idea what this thread is about (nor do I want to read it) but Terrell Owens tweeted photos of him and Zenyaddayaddayadda:

Holy crap the hyperbole is going to be so unbearable if she wins the BCC.
