Shadwell brings them back and they usually come back OK. Invasor wasn't hurt by going to Dubai. They don't go to bin Suroor.

You are correct, the Shadwell runners are generally OK when they come back. However, I thought I had read that he was being purchased to run in the World Cup and stay in Dubai. I might be wrong.

zenyatta ought to run vs the boys this year. seems we may have another year where the distaff division has more top horses than the 'handicap' division.

She ought to have last year. She'd better this year. Had she just run third in the BC Classic she probably would have been HOY.

Tiago and Zenyatta are roughly the same. She probably would have been 3rd or 4th.

Are you saying that Zenyatta is better?

Tiago would have swept all those races against females if he were in them. He has faced the best horses in the world for the past 2 years. He's finished ahead of Curlin. He's beaten Heatseeker in a stretch duel. He's a multiple G1 winner against males. Even if by some chance Zenyatta is better, it won't be by much, maybe 2 or 3 lengths better. But from what I've seen, they look about the same.
