Ginger Punch may not have fired that day. I agree with you that that is quite possible. In fact, I would guess that Ginger Punch didn't run her best that day. But that wouldn't take away from Zenyatta's perfomance that day. She won so easily and she ran really fast. She ran 1 1/16 miles in 1:42 3/5. The Oaklawn Handicap which was run that same day and went in 1:50 2/5 (1 1/8 miles).

The chart for the race says 1:48.3 (although no fractional times, so I don't know if there were any timing issues that day).

No it didn't. The final time of the OP Handicap was 1:48 and 3/5.

I wasn't talking out of my ass, but I was incorrect. If you go to racereplays.com, they show the final time was 1:50.34. They obviously made a mistake. There was a problem with the clocking of the Oaklawn Handicap. I remember that. To this day, I'm not sure if any website has the fractions.

Yes, go to racereplays.com, pull up the race and hit the results tab. They show the final time as 1:50.34. I think that their number is wrong . I think the equibase number is right.
