Tiznow and his connections should get this honor instead. I think a celebration/commemoration of the 10-year anniversary of Tiznow's second triumph is more fitting for THIS Breeders' Cup, especially since he won his first Classic at Churchill Downs. Add the fact he has a contender in this year's Classic that will likely be around 6 or 7-1 (Tiznow's '01 BCC odds), it's the clear perfect fit. WinStar certainly went for it.

Sure, Tiznow may be known by fewer fans and disciples than Zenyatta, but a couple doses of "Tiznow tough as nails....heart-pounding, pulsating stretch drive" will catch everybody's attention. He'll rival Zenyatta's lure for sure when everybody's skin tingles during "the daunting presence of a Horse of the Year" and "Tiznow is battling on" through to "Tiznow wins it for America!!" Sure, my skin reacts to Zenyatta's wins too - it crawls. It's not her fault; I blame Denman for that.

Considering how they've destroyed the event the past few years, I'm not surprised they are missing this unique opportunity. They just continue to grasp at Zenyatta's tail. This isn't stupid, but it's not the right time for it. I simply believe it's better to celebrate Zenyatta's Breeders' Cup legacy at the place she actually won her races. They wouldn't have to wait long as Santa Anita hosts in 2012. As for this being an annual event...pipe dream. Belmont attendees will destroy the booth when they finally get the Cup back.

Well, I'm going to start internalizing and consider it a massive 'diss from the BC. I shall start a Facebook page featuring the comments and responses of a bitter Tiznow who considers Zenyatta a naughty B-word and depressive episodes stemming from not getting a a chance to 3-peat to not knowing his father on a deeper level.
