I'm not surprised about Zenyatta getting HOY. This morning I looked at equidaily and saw how many votes she got the previous two years (69 in 2008, 99 in 2009), and it wasn't difficult to imagine her picking up the additional 30-40 votes needed. It's been a love-fest for her this past year, even among some of the most hard-core turf writers who have professed their unabashed love for her in no uncertain terms. Besides, as has been pointed out countless times, the voting is purely subjective. For what it's worth, I'm good with it.
