Zenyatta is a pretty slow horse actually, a 108 top puts her just average historically in socal for horses who are undefeated, BC champ, multiple g1 winner, etc. She is many lengths behind even such a horse like Azeri.

Azeri never ran on plastic so I don't think you can compare the two. To me, it seems that synthetic BSFs are not in line with dirt numbers, much the same as turf numbers. I am no expert but I think the synthetic numbers are probably 4 or 5 points lower on average than dirt numbers for animals of the same caliber..

Why are you in line, it seems that you already ran the race.

Didn't they change the formula for synthetic numbers?

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit I see.

Supposedly, but it is a fair point to question the issue.
