Default Zenyatta scratched..

Track condition delays the big mare's return.

I believe you, Steve. But she's not up with the rest of the scratches right now:

I don't doubt it and expected her to scratch (not sure I would, though). . . Just saying it's not up. . .

That's a shame, I was looking forward to seeing if Zenyatta could catch One Caroline in the stretch... that was going to be fun to watch... oh well, maybe next time

I hope a rain cloud follows them whereever they go.

Either she is the best or she isn't.

Not.....she is the best on sunny days where no other graded stakes horses enter and they are assured of a fast pace and the other entrants have not gone this distance before.

Geez!

She's an undefeated bigtime West Coast horse ... you'd expect them to be over protective of her.

Heck, they think it's cruel to run her against that laughable group of slowpoke older males because she's a female.

Is this a sport or do you enjoy watching her paid workouts against lesser horses?

One Caroline romps here. And as far as Lady Z, I really don't see why they shipped her to Ky for her first race back anyway. Now they shipped her across the country for nothing. I want her to run on the east coast but her first race back?? didnt make sense to me.

Well it turns out they made the right decision. The track is in horrible shape and One Caroline proved to be a monster!

Here's Moss and Shireffs watching the race from the balcony of Millionaire's Row...
