It all depends on the competition.
Zenyatta carried 129 in the Vanity 2 years ago against inferior competition and I would think Havre De Grace or Rapid Redux ran in handicaps last year under similar circumstances. These days I would guess 129 would be the top weight most trainers would run their horses.
