Your one of her biggest fans...
She lost nothing, she made up 35 lenghts. I thought she ran HUGE. Proving again if the connections were not cowards she would have been making noise on dirt all along.

Zenyatta doesnt owe racing anything, and she will be remembered as 19 and 1 losing a exciting Classic, few will remember that Blame got there first.

She ran a great race. She was so much closer than I thought she would be. I'm now officially impressed. Having said that, I'm glad this is behind us now.

On another note, Mike Smith is a drama queen. She ran a hellofa race. Nothing to mope about.

I've always been a detractor, and yes, I was desperately cheering for Blame to hold her off.

However, she ran very well, and proved to me that she is a better horse than I ever gave her credit for. I'm glad she didn't finish undefeated, but the point many people were trying to make in criticizing the way she was campaigned was that losing a race wasn't the end of the world. And it isn't. She ran a very good race.

For me, this race enhanced her reputation. Sure she was overrated by many and that made me dislike her, but today she travelled away from her home base, beat some very good dirt horses on dirt, and lost by a nose to another very good horse.

This is mature, it also makes me think your clueless about everything she has accomplished.

A very exciting race, Blame looked like he walks to victory but Zenyatta makes a race out of it when she looked like she was totally out of it, she will get more respect out of finishing second than winning the race.

I said on this forum a couple of years ago that one day Smith would give her too much to do, and today was the day. She ran her race.

You don't think she ran a great race? From where she came from and the trip of the winner, I think even the critics can admit she did.
