This is funny in 5 races for both Blame and Zenyatta before the Classic.

Blame 4 (1st) 1 (2nd) = $1,051,467
Zenyatta 5 (1st) = $930,000

Now lets add Goldi's 5 races before the Mile
Goldikova 4 (1st) 1 (2nd) = $985,495

Who's been running for more money again all year?

Aren't purses in the form always calculated in American Dollars? If not then nope it wasn't.

Not as I read it when the races are held in Europe. Usually paid in pounds or euros.

Excellent news - She is simply fantastic and there should be some brilliant races next year with her, Canford Cliffs, maybe even So You Think and the up and coming 3yos...
