Zenyatta is one of the Greatest of all time. And IMO she is the greatest female racehorse ever to step foot on the track. She shouldn't be retired and that's that. Unless she's not moving forward I would love to see one of the greatest run again next year.

If you don't mind me asking, how long have you been following the sport?

I'm still waiting. Show me one person who said she's a terrible horse.

I dont recall anyone ever saying that.
As a fan do you want her to retire or comeback?

I want that statement retracted before I go any further. Unless he/she can produce a quote of someone saying she's a terrible horse.

As a fan of horse racing I want her back if they will take some chances... **** even if its the Gold Cup and Pacific Classic at home for her. I dont want her back running the same 2 campaigns from 2009 and 2010.

There would be no point to that. It is also far from a HOY path, as they know now. If they don't have a potential HOY campaign, what is the point (unless they just want to cherrypick Dubai).

If after being on the internet following racing and reading comments you haven't come across people nocking Zenyatta as less than a Great horse - comparing her to lame horses like Peppers Pride - than you've got to be in an alternate universe. You want me to find quotes? Quotes that prove to you that people have nocked her as a terrible horse? People have and you know it. Come on.

Prove it. Show me one quote where someone said she was terrible. Comparisons to Peppers Pride were simply to make the point that being undefeated alone doesn't make you great. No one called her terrible, you made it up.
