He didn't show up? Are you kidding me? But Zenyatta did? There's no way you believe the things you're writing.

If you don't like the entire game Cannon why train?

The Pagentry is part of it. That doesn't mean she wasnt a great mare, she was.

So you don't think either or all of them would have finished in front of Blame, or you don't think they would have finished in front of Blame because Zenyatta's little nosey was right there with his?

I think it would all depend. Both had similar running styles. Curlins best was better then Blame, but Im not sure Invasor's was.

history will show that the 'queen' zenyatta not only was just ok on the dirt at 10f .check the times .. that the hollywood press machine can still get the propaganda rolling enough to make her a 'superhorse'. the problem bieng history didnt start from 2006 on..shes a good horse who raced many of her
wins vs less than challenging or weak fields. if she was in a time warp to 1999 she would have been destroyed and probebly not been in the top 7

In that race. On Saturday. You don't think all of those three are in front of Blame? I know you can't be, but for just once, try to be objective.

Why not, what was wrong with Invasor?

He reminds me a lot of Blame. His nose win over Sun King does not make me think best of the past 5 years.

Yeah, because that's all he did in his career. Invasor is pretty much a different species from Blame. And for all of everyone's excuses about Zenyatta's trip/not handling the track, Bernardini looked like he was spinning his wheels and then got the typical early move ride from Castellano that day.
