medlocke · To start with, Switch is not just an ordinary filly that Zenyatta so often gets accused of racing. I think most people consider Blind Luck one of, it not the best 3yr.old filly in America. She'll likely be favorite for the Breeders Cup Ladies Classic. This is the same Switch that beat Blind Luck in the G2 Hollywood Oaks back in June. I'm just curious if anyone besides myself noticed what happened to Zenyatta when she cornered the final turn in the Lady's Secret yesterday? She crossed over to her left lead to go around the turn just fine. But when she straightened out, she got completely off of her correct lead. She went about 3 strides with both front legs out in front of her at the same time. If you'll watch the replay, Mike Smith immediately corrects this by slapping Zenyatta at the top of her right leg, getting her back in stride on the correct lead. She then ran down Switch with just under a furlong left. Incredible. There's not a horse racing anywhere in the world that Zenyatta can't reach down and grab a gear for to run down. IMO. · 965 days ago ·

mdracing69 · I have always liked Switch. I played her in the Kentucky Oaks Future Wager and am glad to see her performing well in the Graded ranks. As for Blind Luck, note that she was nominated to the Lady's Secret but did not want anything to do with Zenyatta so she skipped town and ran 2nd in Saturday's G2 Cotillion in PA. · 965 days ago ·

A Question for Zenyatta: Quo Vadis?

The new player at the Harrah's Rincon Casino bought into the blackjack game with two $50 bills. Some people think $50 bills are bad luck. I remember the day at nearby Del Mar, several years ago, when somebody hit a $300 exacta payoff and the mutuel clerk tried to pay him in $50 bills...Read More

medlocke · Anyone who tries to brag about that pitiful Lady's Secret Stakes field that was really a glorified Allowance race that Rachel Alexandra just won, and claim that Zenyatta raced nobody in this race has their head stuck up their proverbial ass. It wasn't American filly's and mares that were trying to dethrone Zenyatta today. It was race-mares from Ireland and Great Britain. Rinterval, that ran 2nd today, also just ran 2nd to Informed Decision in the Chicago Handicap at Arlington in July. I'd say Informed Decision is a pretty fare measuring stick. Rinterval also ran 2nd to another great European mare, Lush Lashes, in the 2008 Goff Hotel Millions Stakes at the Curragh in Ireland. The 3rd place finisher in today's Clement L. Hirsch, Princess Taylor, is from Great Britain. She ran 2nd in the 09' Plantation Stud Fillies Stakes at Newmarket to Barshiba. Barshiba is a back to back Lancashire Oaks winner, and was just 3rd in the Hardwicke Stakes at Ascot. Princess Taylor was also 2nd in the Warwickshire Oaks Stakes at Warwick in 2009. The 3rd place finisher, Spring Style, is also from Ireland. I really couldn't find much information about her lifetime stats. Dance To My Tune and Made For Magic rounded out the field. Dance To My Tune finished 2nd to Zenyatta in the 2010 Santa Margarita Handicap. And Made For Magic just won the G2 Milady Handicap in May. A race won by Zenyatta in both 2008 and 2009. So I think it's pretty fair to say that Zenyatta had plenty of worth competition in this year's Clement L. Hirsch. What's so amazing is that Mike Smith never really had her out of second gear in the race. She responded to go by the entire field under a hand ride the whole way. Smith never touched Zenyatta with the stick. She only won by a head. But Del-Mar has never been Zenyatta's favorite surface. And given her running style as a deep closer, she's never going to win any race by much at all. But she just covers so much ground so quickly, and always knows what gear Smith needs her to be in. She's managed to be in the correct gear 18 straight times now. Even though I think both Blame and Quality Road are fantastic horses. Probably America's two best COLTS over conventional dirt. Neither of them has ever won beyond 9 furlongs. That 1 extra furlong in the B.C. Classic can make all the difference. That's why I think Zenyatta will run either one of them down in the Classic. The further the distance of the race, the more effective Zenyatta's closing kick becomes. I think Zenyatta would be a fantastic 12 furlong mare if they ever wanted to race her at that distance. This horse can run all day long until the cows come home. Well done Zenyatta. Keep on keepin' on!!!! · 1021 days ago ·

monpark5 · Oh please, you all bashed rachel for racing nobody, so why not do the same to zenyatta? She raced nobody, and only won by a nose, rachel took care of business in her race. You mention these horses from overseas, i see your point, but none of them were winners, just placers, and theres no telling how well they would do here in america, and against zenyatta of all horses. Why did zenyatta choose this race, is she trying to race the best competition, or just trying to stay undefeated at this point for her career? Compare the horses rachel alexandra has beaten in her career, the best in the country, and zenyatta has never raced competition like that EVER! · 1021 days ago ·

Does that make Smith right for "hitting the button too soon?" · 1021 days ago ·

momscommand · 'Quality field' is a relative thing. It would have been wonderful to have Z beat a mare of such quality as Vodka (Jpn), who has traveled internationally and won $13+ million dollars. V was in Dubai to run in the World Cup when she was withdrawn because of a career-ending injury. Now, that is quality that lives and breathes today. By the way, Z was invited to Ascot and Dubai and passed, but noone deprived her owners of their right to make these decisions; why do we want to deprive RA's owners of the same privilege? Stop being the bullies on the block and beating up your own American neighbors; strike out at the international crowd. · 1021 days ago ·

medlocke · luvzenyatta, Make no mistake about it. Rinterval has ran back to back solid efforts in America. Having ran 2nd to Informed Decision in the Chicago Handicap in July at Arlington, and to Zenyatta in yesterday's Clement L.Hirsch. The difference between them is this. Rintereval was full out. Giving her absolute all against Zenyatta. Zenyatta was never out of second gear. Bejarano is talking trash. Because if Zenyatta has needed to go to another gear to beat Rintereval, she certainly had plenty more gears to shift through. Mathematic don't like. Zenyatta has got gears and more gears at her disposal. There's not a horse anywhere in racing that Zenyatta is not able to run down. She may not beat them by much. But she can still go to whatever gear necessary to run by them at the wire. Not Blame. Not Quality Road. Not Rachel Alexandra. Not Rail Trip. None of these horses will stop Zenyatta from winning back to back Classics, and retiring undefeated as one of the all time greats. She'll likely retire 20 for 20 as the only other horse besides Tiznow to win back to back Classics. Tiznow beat Giant's Causeway in 2000. And Arc De Triomphe winner, Sakhee in 2001. · 1020 days ago ·

bob46 · Sad to say I would have to put Zenyatta right up there with Hallowed Dreams the Lousiana Bred that had that great streak racing strictly in Lousiana. Only west coast racing fans will kneel at her altar. The real racing fan will see her for what she really is. A really good poly-track horse who rarely if at all put her record on the line against any serious race horse. She races against cup-cakes on her home course and then the tea drinkers have this notion that she is super woman. Meanwhile the real sportsmen race their good horses agsinst good competition, (see RA last year) and it is not suprising it takes alot out of these horses(see RA this year). Zenyatta has all easy races against overmatched horses(can you name one horse she has beaten this year) and then god forbid she has one race against any kind of quality field again she has a distinct advantage because these horse have been running hard and expending their form in races that Zenyatta continues to duck. Of course thats her owners game plan. Keep her undefeated in easy races then hopefully fire one big shot in the Breeders Cup. By the way it would not suprise me at all if Zenyatt does not show up at the BC with some flimsy excuse. In my heart I know they don't want to take her out of california and face top flight competition. The botton line is if you want to be called the best you have to beat the best and Zenyatta has never come even close to doing that. · 1020 days ago ·

pacepal_pete · Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob....The quacking is coming from the East. West Coast horses routinely ship East and kick butt. Zenyatta had no problem at Oaklawn and will crush again in the Classic (once again beating the best horses in the world - that includes the East Coast, Mid-West, Canada & other countries).. Lookin At Lucky did okay in the Haskell he's from the West Coast in case you didn't know. Where were the East Coast monsters at Oaklawn? We recognize great horses here. Spectacular Bid, Skip Away, we loved them and many thought Quality Road could be a major threat to Queen Z. We have West Coast experts who voted for Rachel Alexander for HOY. Maybe you should start an East Coast Championship (sorry Canterbury already has the Claiming Crown).. Seems to me West Coast horses perform well in all the major races in the US and seems we crush in Dubai also, which I'm sure costs you money, thus causing your irrational opinions. · 1020 days ago ·

medlocke · I love Zenyatta. I'm a huge fan, and have been since the beginning of her career. But the Moss's and John Shirreffs are flirting with disaster for a third year in a row. Entering Zenyatta in the Clement L. Hirsch. On a track that Zenyatta clearly doesn't like at Del-Mar. She doesn't run the Del-Mar surface nearly as well as the Hollywood Park track. Or her favorite of them all, Santa Anita. Frankly, watching Zenyatta race over conventional dirt at Oaklawn. I believe she handle's conventional dirt better than the surface at Del-Mar. She won the 08' Clement L. Hirsch by only a length. And everyone remembers the thrilling finish to the 09' Clement L. Hirsch. When Zenyatta just narrowly ran down Anaaba's Creation in the shadow of the wire. You keep messing with the bull, and you finally get the horns. There's nothing for Zenyatta to gain by racing at Del-Mar again. It's roughly 3 months until Breeders Cup Classic time. Why not ship Zenyatta to Saratoga to race in the Personal Ensign Handicap? Rachel Alexandra or no Rachel Alexandra. That's not what this would be about. It's about finding out how you're great, undefeated race-mare is going to handle conventional dirt over 1-1/4. That's why the Personal Ensign would be ideal for Zenyatta at this stage of the season. She likely stands a greater chance of losing at Del-Mar than she would shipping to Saratoga.

cugel the clever · "an outcome that has been called the best Breeders' Cup race ever, as well as one of the greatest performances in the history of the sport." Z is a great horse, but this kind of over the top hyperbole is absurd. Z's win over a mediocre field of males was NOT one of the best Breeder's Cup races ever and certainly NOT one of the greatest sports performances. I could cherry-pick many better Breeder's Cup races, but Awesome Again's victory in 1998 against probably the best Classic field ever assembled (Skip Away, Silver Charm, Swain, Victory Gallop, Coronado's Quest, etc) was a far, far better race against far superior competition. http://www.breederscup.com/greatestmoments.aspx?year=1998&divisionname=classic · 1024 days ago ·
