Of course, if Zenyatta lines up against a killer like Inside Information, Ghostzapper, and probably even the aforementioned Bernardini, we are not having this discussion as well.

Unless you meant to say that RA would have beaten those horses and then even the most stubborn people would have to admit she did more than Zenyatta.

In that case, I would agree with you.

Citation would have drummed Rachel Alexandra. No way she deserved horse of the year.

Man O War would have whipped Zenyatta

We would not even be having a discussion if that happened.

SB was the best Lucky Alexander faced all season … and he's a stayer … clearly vulnerable at anything less than ten.


AGS would've spanked LA…

You're really skating on thin ice with this one. AGS's best race was the Haskell and RA's was better. There's just no way around it, and I was a huge (and financially less sound person because of it) AGS fan.

AGS would've left Lucky in the dust (with HS and C) in the '07 edition of that race, NTamm1215.


Like I said … LUCKY Alexander, 2009 Horse-of-the-Year..............

Heck if Zenyatta had hooked up with Ashado we would not be having this conversation.

If Curlin's first baby faced them this year we wouldn't be having this conversation, she easily gets 10f look at those legs.
