I just think Zenyatta has no chance in the BC Classic and is really only there to lose gracefully. I just get the feeling, call me crazy. But the win streak was SOOOO important that Zenyatta went out of her way to keep it going, and yes she's the champ and someone should come to her to beat her, but... I don't know... It just seems like maybe the connections knew that either BC race would be tough, and a loss is possible when you have a closer (whose winning margins are shrinking), and that losing in the Classic is better than losing in the Ladies' Classic. Am I way off base here? |

I think it's more that they wanted her to match Personal Ensign's record of 13 straight wins first, and now that she's accomplished that, they're willing to take a chance on a big race that would boost her legacy faaaar more if she won it than the Ladies Classic would. And she would look better losing the Classic against some of the best males in the country/world than she would losing against the females.
I think she has a chance and deserves the opportunity to prove herself against males.
I agree with you---no chance whatsoever. But, considering the sentimental money she will attract, this will shape up to be a great betting race, chock full of overlays.

Yes you are a cynic. Root for Z.
zenyatta is great but we have to look at what she has faced. she has never seen anything close to einstein before. zenyatta deserves to be in the race and should get a piece of the money. I respect her connections a lot more than that siisy jess jackson. Rachel is actually bred to like the poly because medaglia d oro is a top POLY sire. If jackson cared about the fans at all, he would take a chance. Rachel has the breeding, but her owner is clearly afraid of zenyatta
You're gay, but right as far as Zenyatta is concerned.
Yeah, right. Embarrassed herself didn't she?
Hey, i put myself out there, I was dead wrong. I admit it, and am not trying to talk my way out of it.
