I think Zenyatta's next foal should be by Drosselmeyer! Before you start critizing me, finish reading this!!! Zenyatta preferd 1 1/8 to a mile 1 1/4, while Drosselmeyer preferred at the shortest a 1 1/4, so their foal would be loaded with stamina from various distances. She/He could get the longer distance of the Ky Derby and the Belmont and the shorter of the Preakness. I mean just think how good that foal could be (hudge prediction though!!!!!!!!!!!)

who was Zenyatta bred to?
The top females thoroughbreds are some of our favorite and most memorable. Zenyatta, Ruffian, Rachel Alexandra. Genuine Risk, Go For Wand and Personal Ensign. Twilight Tear, Gallorette and Regret. All time greats, every one of them. But who belongs in the top 10? Who belongs at the top? Jump on now ...Read More

  • New York Vinnie · cocoa2 - many will never forget Landaluce. Me included. She was a sweet, black coated two year old filly out of Seattle Slew that captivated the west, having won five races by almost 50 lengths. She won her first race in 1:08 then came back a week later and won a Grade 1 race by 21 lengths in 1:08:1. Her last three races as a two year included race run in 1:21, 1:35 and 1:41. Uncle Mo, on the other hand, ran a 1:34.6 and and 1:42 in a mile and a mile and a sixteenth, and was considered the second coming of Spectacular Bid and Seattle Slew. Landaluce will never be forgotten. · 5 days ago ·

  • Floridaf · Very poignant piece, Scott. I believe that if I had been in your shoes, meeting and speaking with Randy Moss would have stood out the most (especially since I'm a Falcons fan anyway). But the point is that as much as I love football, horse racing is the only sport that can and has moved me to tears. I'm rooting to bring the sport to my home state of Georgia. In the meantime, I believe that with the added interest in Indiana racing lately, it is only a matter of time before the Breeders' Cup is run there. · 8 days ago ·

What a truly exciting year. First Rachel's foal, and now we have Zenyatta's to look forward to. I'm sure I'm not the only one who hopes the two colts will be the pride of their stables!
No records broken, only the one for consecutive wins. Remind me why she is ranked this high?

lets not keep throwing bad comments about good horses. horses dont have to break records to be good its how they inspire people like Zenyatta did. And the horses today have evolved into better horses from when Man O' War raced and i love Man O' War but still dont diss Zenyatta ever.

  • travel_vic · From an ESPN article: "At Oaklawn Park, there will never be a Cougar Day, a Mike vs. Chantal match race, or an advertising campaign featuring exotic dancers; there will never be night racing, or camel racing or ostrich racing. At Oaklawn Park, horses and racing matter. " · 24 days ago ·

  • 12thCrown · Not sure how many of you frequent Oaklawn, so while there won't be a "Cougar Day" per se, there are plenty of eligible ladies and dudes hanging around the second level sports bar. Seriously though, it's an extremely social place where people do care about the horses. · 19 days ago ·

Many racing fans are prepared to state emphatically that Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra are two of the best, if not THE best, fillies of the past half-century. The list from which to chose, however, is longer than most think. Below is a reminder just how extensive that list is. With almost half the y...Read More

Smarty Jones almost won the Triple Crown
It will be exciting to see the foal of Zenyatta and Bernadini with all the wins Bernadini had with his 3 Yo class had this year.With Zenyatta's Roberto Mr.Prospector Pedigree it would be interesting if she trys a Nothern Dancer Sire like Cape Blanco,Kitten's Joy or Medallo De Oro.The 3 yo classic winners this year had 2011 sire fees of $7500,$12,500 and $15,000 150k is not always the best value
It will be exciting to see Zenyatta's foal with all the sucess
Bloodhorse Magazine's most "intriguing horse of 2011"... Zenyatta! HVD #2, Goldikova #3; most intriguing person: Mike Smith, followed by Bill Mott and Graham Motion. The full list is in the latest issue of Bloodhorse.

Dead Heat Debates’ Laura Pugh and I were discussing the Count Fleet Stakes and the G3 Sham Stakes, and, as always happens with conversations, when we had exhausted that topic, we moved on to another.

  • brooklyn.steve · This is the same reason some horses don't go to the Breeders Cup that should. Yeah, it would be nice to win, but the risk/reward factor will almost never favor the owner. As an owner, one thing I have wanted to see changed for some time is purse distribution. If the bulk of the money goes to the winner, how is anyone except the winner supposed to make a buck? It should be a uniform 50% of the purse money goes to the winner, 25% goes to the 2nd place horse, 12% to the show horse and so on. The winner of any race, I don't care if it's a MCL or the Kentuck Derby, should never get more than 50% of the purse money. · 32 days ago ·

  • Floridaf · Chris, you're absolutely right about a day at the races. Depending on how far away from a track you live, the most expensive part of the day would probably be travel costs and betting. Laura, you make a VERY good point about racing where your talent puts you. If this actually happened, we would have more competitive and exciting races. If Zenyatta had raced against the boys more times than just in the BCC, then her fans would have been ecstatic. Her closing kick was amazing to watch, but it was even more thrilling when she raced and won against males. Steve, I like your idea about purse distribution. It would definitely make more people take more risks rather than playing it safe in the interests of trying not to land in the red. · 32 days ago ·

Someone once said that year-end reviews are what journalists write to avoid making New Year's resolutions. This is probably true, since I haven't gotten around to writing resolutions yet (number one, don't procrastinate?) At any rate, it's time to remember the high points of 12 months of coverage as...Read More
Monmouth Park’s biggest day of the year is the Haskell. There is great racing and a really big crowd. A lot of the crowd comes to increase their collection of racing memorabilia with the traditional Haskell Hat giveaway. Monmouth has been giving hats away since at least 1988.Read More
