Zenyatta: Wins the Breeder's Cup Classic! HOTY?

So if she wins, is she HOY? I think that’s a tough one, I’d still have to go for Rachel.

Really nice NYTimes story today.

This is supposed to be her last race before she becomes a baby factory.

Nice article! Thanks for posting it!

As I watch this lovely mare go to be saddled, I am just impressed with her. My heart belongs to Rachel Alexandra, but this mare…WOW! What a show she puts on for the crowd and unbeaten in 13 races…what a record. I am on pins and needles just watching…and of course how can any of us forget Ruffian and a few other mares who have come before her. I so wish Zenyatta a safe race…

SHE DID IT!!!

Wow. After all of the energy she spent with the whole gate debacle, I knew she’d have to run her best race to win and well, she did. :eek:

14!!!

HORSE OF THE YEAR!!!

I’m crying like a baby. The greatest horses ever have decided to grace us with their presence this year. Living legends. Sea the Stars, Rachel Alexandra, and ZENYATTA!!!

Sorry, RA, but Zenyatta just beat all the big boys at 1 1/4 miles.

WoW :eek: Awesome!

Holy Hell.

She looked like a freight train heading home.

So, how about a Sea the Stars-Zenyatta baby? Wonder what that one would fetch at auction.

Look at the great reception for her.

What a beautiful mare!!!

Magnificent. A story book ending.

Incredible…just incredible. I know I just witnessed history. Wow, wow, wow! I was in tears also and I’m not even really a racing fan…but no one can not be blown away by such a show of class.

I was just thinking the same thing! Book her a plane flight to the UK and get her a date with Sea The Stars…think of what you might get from that mating!

OMG. Any questions about her now???
