Yes. This is a very important point to focus on while this man trained Zenyatta for the 2009 and now, the 2010 Classic, under everyone's noses.

It was a 14 minute segment sir. If your teeth look like the color of baked beans, you need to put forth an effort. I'm keeping it real.

How about if Quality Road finish ahead of Zenyatta that I will be banned from nerdy trail.

If Zenyatta finish in front of Quality Road you take down you links to your tout service.

Other than Mike Smith's unapologetic declaration about her being the greatest horse ever should she win the Classic - better than Secretariat, blah, blah, blah, I didn't find it so bad. It was indeed a puff piece geared to the unwashed masses of non-racing fans. It might draw a few people into the sport. Emphasis on the word "might".

Despite John Sherriff's less than white teeth (maybe it's from his share of Guinnes Stout), I like him. He loves his charge and isn't afraid to get all gushy about her. I find nothing wrong with that. I did kind of smile when Mike Smith said through misting eyes that no stallion was worthy of her.

C'mon folks, lighten up. It's hype, and it's only the beginning should she win the Classic. Get used to it or just tune off everything horseracing, because 99% of it will be slathering over Zenyatta until well after the Eclipse Awards.
