The budding rivalry between champions Beholder
and Stellar Wind will see its third round in the
$300,000 Zenyatta Stakes (gr. I),

trainer John Sadler is enthusiastic for his two-time grade I winner to again
take on Beholder, who could win the Zenyatta an
unprecedented fourth time.

Beholder equaled therace's namesake and 2010 Horse of the Year with a
third consecutive victory last year. Zenyatta won the
race in 2008, 2009, and 2010 when it was called the
Lady's Secret Stakes.

The pair will likely face off again in the Longines
Breeders' Cup Distaff (gr. I), where they should
encounter another champion in Songbird.
