Yeah, I've seen unflattering posters of you plastered all over Evangeline Training Center because of it.

I'd be careful. You probably don't want to experience an acepromazine positive firsthand.

This argument and the supposed high ground sides take is amusing.

These quotes just from this thread:

From the RA camp-

"It's curious at best to me why there is so much emotional argument made for Zenyatta."

Guess they didn't notice this-

"The Zenyatta supporters don't have a leg to stand on."

or this

"simply put it would be a tradegy for horseracing if they give any horse , hoy , for winning only on the poly surface"

One of the big attractions in horse racing is we don't have such comments from the athletes only their fans.

The award goes to who the award goes to. Two deserving horses battling down to the wire. Only wish we had more years like this one.

I don't get it. So when people make a flimsy case for Zenyatta and are told that they don't have a leg to stand on thanks to said flimsy case they just made, then they get emotional and change the subject, therefore making their emotion somehow reasonable? I don't follow.

And one of the big things that attracts you to horse racing is a horse's inability to speak? Guess there's a first time for hearing everything.

Sorry I guess I should have said I'm glad only one side has emotional arguments.
