Great athletes make things happen... Michael Jordan with buzzer beaters, Tiger Woods with big putts etc. This was another example... giving weight, going wide, giving St. Trinians a head start - everything - yet she still got it done. Pretty cool.

Uh no. Great athletes face the best on a consistent basis.

You would too if you had as many needles stuck in you that have been stuck in her

I know what you're saying, and if this was like every other sport, yeah... but Rocco Mediate is a good not great golfer, and he had Tiger on the ropes, yet Tiger won. Same thing today.

I think I may have jinxed St. Trinians with my premature shout of glee at thinking Zenyatta was finally going to lose. A second later, the outcome seemed never in doubt.
No doubt Smith had to ride her a heck of a lot harder today than he had to in any of her previous several starts.

He rode a great race. Had 9 lbs. Came out to force her wide coming into the stretch. Came out again mid-stretch. I'm gunna says this again. If you want to beat the best, then the horse can't be twirling the left front like that (it matters going 9-10f.)

Smith's dream horse. No need to worry about going 9 wide in a six horse field.

Actually it was a 4 horse field with 2 donkeys

Oh I know... the pace was solid, the race setup, St. Trinian puts the race away, and laid down in the final few strides, but none-the-less Zenyatta was beat at the 16th pole, but dug-in.

Counted 10 cracks of the whip by Smith, for whatever that is worth (probably absolutely nothing).

I'm sure Mike Smith loved that comparison to him being Jay Z and Zenyatta Beyonce, wtf was that guy thinking

Looked like she didn't put her head down and really start running until he cracked her a few times.
