Horses don't always improve with age .. And yes I am aware what Rachel did this year, unlike you of Zenyatta ... I expect you may need a visit to a proctologist soon, but that is beyond the scope of this discussion ... |

His first start was in an off the turf start where he beat the legendary Medjool, who has subsequently managed to finish third four times out of thirteen starts since then. In third was El Gato Malo. His next start was in the Strub, where he finished fifth by 1.5 lengths to Cowboy Cal. Then the second by 1 length to Z. Tell me why again this is supposed to wow me? Quote:
What should I look for in searching out a good proctologist? |

I am not here to wow you ... You would not get it anyway ... Any proctologist will do ... Rachel had bone chips removed at two . She improved after that ... There was a reason ... |

Does not seem like Zenyatta is losing her "edge" after this third work if she is breathing fire today at the barn. Wonder if the Mosses are waiting for the Eclipse awards on January 18 to make a big splash announcement with the whole racing world watching. Two years ago, Jess Jackson announced at the Eclipse awards that Curlin would race as a four-year old. Definitely makes the Eclipse awards a week from Monday must-see TV. |

There is always the possibility of her being unable to conceive and those results won't be made public until the Eclipse Awards.
(Juicy plot noise follows) I will say a 48 second 1/2 mile is too fast at this point for an April race.

I understand your argument that she has nowhere to go but down but I don't necessarily agree. As of right now, alot of people still doubt her. They think that she's not as good as RA and they mininmize her wins because the wins (with the exception of one) were on synthetic. If she were to beat RA on the dirt, I think that Z may finally get the respect she deserves. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that they should run the horse again. I'm just saying that there could be some upside to running her again. If she won a big race or two on the dirt (and beat RA), it would finally shut up all the doubters for good and she would get the respect she deserves. |

they got their 3 yo colt gr 1, now they need to put some effort into the filly race and maybe the oaklawn handicap, formerly a gr 1. with dubai going to syn, oaklawn becomes a viable alternative. |

From the Santa Anita stable notes, quoting the wife of Sherrifs:
“It’s very cold in Kentucky, two degrees,” Ingordo said when asked when Zenyatta might ship there for breeding. “We sent one horse there and it got sick.” |

they said weeks ago that they might keep her in cali til breeding time, that they didn't want to put her in the cold before necessary. just because the clockers timed her the other day, doesn't mean it was an actual work for a race. hell, get jesse ventura on the case, he'll uncover the truth.
