Even if I liked her chances, which I obviously don't, I would never bet her at this point. She is far and away the most mushed horse in racing history.

The most impressive thing about the video is how eloquent Mike Smith is, and his ability to explain why Zenyatta is so great.

He had to wear his helmet in the interview so his brain wouldn't leak all over the floor.

Peppers Pride: Greatest Horse Ever? Well, she's never been beaten. How can you argue with perfection?

I can't wait for the wildly inaccurate Disney movie about her in 10 years.

What brain dude?

I thought he was wearing the helmet so all the Zenyattards watching could tell the difference between the interviewer and the interviewee.

OMG! That's so kewl!!

In post position order, we have

1. Ruffian
2. Zenyatta
3. Rachel Alexandra
4. Smarty Jones
5. Cigar
6. Citation
7. Big Brown
8. Barbaro
9. Seabiscuit.
10. Affirmed

This is a race at Pimlico going the Preakness distance.

I like how most of them are under the whip right away.

I also like how the race is sponsored by CBS and 60 Minutes.

Zenyatta first, followed by Citation, Affirmed, Cigar, Seabiscuit, Ruffian, Barbaro, Smarty Jones, Big Brown and to put the cherry on top, Rachel Alexandra last!!

Seriously, these Zenyattards that absolutely have no grip on reality, they are portrayed perfectly in Idiocracy.

She might be 1/5 next weekend. If she runs, that is.

How many lengths ahead of Secretariat do we think Zenyatta would have finished in the Belmont? I know she does just what she needs to, but her largest winning margins have been on dirt.

We all mock this but this will be the most watched Breeders Cup Classic ever thanks to 60 Minutes. Would make great theater for Zenyatta to win with her usual flair. It may convert a lot of the new eyes however I fear alot of folks will lose a lot of money they don't have on her which will have the opposite affect. Just my 2 dimes.

Next announcement will be a seance this Friday where they spill the blood of Rachel Alexandra and torment a Goldlilova voodoo doll.

So I downloaded the free version of the game and there are two races to play. Last years BCC and Derby.

Summer Bird wins every time without adjusting the settings. So I made every horse but Quality Road a rabbit and he won at 18-1. After that I chose to ride Zenyatta and increased her effort midrace and her energy level emptied to zero as she faded to last....
