Default Them ther fightin' words

I like how this story was not credited with an author, as he/she probably fears for his/her life from the likes of Smoothie Operator.

He's right. I find it hard to argue otherwise.

I find it hard to believe there would be anything unsafe about that article. I mean...Zenyatta fans are rational people who are okay with others having their own opinion right?

Oh brother … again with the Goldilocks


"Fightin' words" … lol … more like delusional words


BC Mile … $2 million
BC Turf … $3 million
BC Classic … $5 million

Prix de la Foret … $333,000 (lol)
Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe … $5.33 million



Yeah, the "best horse in the world" which doesn't (can't) compete in the biggest, richest races in the world


LOL … too funny

Goldilocks ain't won no important races like the 10f BC Classic on a s.hit surface so it's no contest.

Love,

Goldikova is on such a higher level than Zenyatta it's not even debatable.

you are probably right....but at least let the morons fight over it.....lol. another great thread of ignorance and a stupid article.WHO CARES? ITS BREEDERS CUP DAY! i know i'll waste my time crying over who the biggest star is on breeders cup day. BEFORE i even know the results.....makes perfect sense....lol. yup, theres one good horse running that day.....give me a break. if i were lucky enough to have a horse running in it, this is what i would be worried about....lol. running good does not matter...who gets the most attention BEFORE does...kind of how most of these clowns bet....lol

If the strip comes up a sealed slop-fest like for the '04 Derby (when LH rode the conveyor belt around the oval and placed), I hope that JS scratches her again, cupcakes44…

If the strip comes up anti-speed, I hope everyone but Z scratches so she can win in a walkover.
