'legitimate modern methods' you mean his speed figs? The same ones that some people say don't work. The figs that seem to be to good to be true.I never said Z will save racing but she did more FOR RACING as a legit superstar than any other horse this year. Every time she raced crowds were huge, agreed. Where are the 'BLAME FANS' or any other horse for that matter. You seem to think that unless you gamble you can't help racing? The thousands of young kids cheering for Z helped attendance in Calif at a time when negativity is rampant in horse racing.
