Zenyatta hurt?

[MaTH716]

I'm expecting an 11:00 Jess Jackson press conference announcing that Rachael is now pointing towards the Apple Blossom.


Seriously I hope the rumors are false.

Zenyatta brings out the very best in her competition.

Hopefully these rumors are false and her 102 Beyer wasn't a going away gift.

I did notice when Smith pulled her up after the race he sat there for a minute looking down at her left front leg... Anyone else notice that?

Mike Smith was looking at her left leg. He looked at it mulitiple times.

[Arletta]

I thought it was the left..but whatever leg.. I hope nothing is wrong.

Zenyatta to be bred to English Channel "if" he can reach

I sincerely hope not. The starch has already been taken out of this stretch of the season, this would just take the air out of the balloon completely.

Here is the thing, Smith would have never stayed on her back and galloped her home if it was anything close to serious.

She should have easily been clipped while in that trouble, hopefully it is just a minor scrap or cut.

There pre-race answers sure lead people to believe she is a-ok. We didn't some of the "We'll see how she comes out and figure out a plan" type crap

Doesn't it typically take up to 72 hours to really know if something serious yet not severe happened.. We all know she didnt snap a leg off.

I was there Saturday and took a ton of photos, I even got some as her groom was walking her back to the barn after the race. She was walking fine then and had no visible injuries. I just checked my photos and zoomed in on the legs to look for any injuries and didn't see anything noticeable, no cuts or bleeding.

Hope she's ok...
