I hear they are considering sending her across seas to be bred to Sea the Stars.

Talk about a priceless baby!

No chance they let her travel that far. Even if that was the plan, they'd likely scratch the day of the "meeting" because of the cold or something.

Priceless why it wouldn't be for sale? What makes you think she is going to be able to reproduce anything close to what she is.What makes you think Sea The Stars is going to be able to reproduce his brilliance? I figure they both will be somewhat of a disappointment...How can't they be look at the expectations. Go look at the winners of the Kentucky Oaks the last 15 years and let me now how many good never mind PRICELESS broodmares you find..

With that being said, they should keep racing Zenyatta. Sooner or later RA and Z would have to meet and put an end to all this .

Check the '04 trifecta... Goulash (Ashado) & Sassy Pants (Madcap Escapade). Z's big sis was favored and dreadful in '05. Besides that, not so much.

The winners have been dreadful with a few hi lites sprinkled in. I have been told that many of the place and show hores in the Oaks have been very successful boddmares for an excellent source. I haven't check out if his statement is accurate but I believe him when he tells me something as I deem him extremely well versed on the subject, unlike a hack like myself.
