Fixed your typo.

Good … now go out in the garage and put a coat of wax on the Porsche

Fexed yer scooder for ya.

How many times do I have to tell you, when Zenyatta is on TV, use a sock and stand back from the television.

I hate cleaning up your messes.

Another long, quick drill on that superior, stamina-building HP cushion yesterday for the big mare

Seems to be really feeling her oats lately


Also noticed that they took B back to Keeneland to prep for the JCGC on that superior synthetic surface

Smart move by Stall ... very smart

Thought I read that he was gunna ship him down to Bel to train for the race

At any rate, he clearly looks like the horse to beat in the BCC, at this point, in my estimation…

I was wondering when you or CSC1985 (mostly you) was going to chime in with some idiotic remark about Zenyatta's latest workout.

Where have you two been anyways? Did you two enjoy your Labor Day holiday together?

Weakening of faith? zenyatta is still undefeated, you know. Surely, as the greatest distaffer in North America in the last 30 years, she has nothing to fear from the Super Derby runner-up.

Agreed. I'm no Zenyatta nuthugger, but until she loses, how can anyone say another horse is the one to beat?

because blame is a better horse based on recent form? he's faced and defeated much better than she has this year.

Is he undefeated with a previous BCC win to his credit?

lol
so because she won that race a year ago, she's the one to beat this year? we're to ignore everything that's happened since, because of that? i disagree.

Since? Hmm... Tell me what Z has done wrong since? She showed up to face Rachel. Where was Rachel? She has won every race since, thats all...

Are you two joking?


B is a 4yo male … Z a 6yo female.

B already owns a couple big scores at CD … Z hasn't raced there yet.

B showed a lot of grit while taking down top-ranked QR in the biggest open contest so far this year.


He's clearly the early fav for the BCC at this point...

so...that negates what blame has done? she's not the only horse pointing to that race, is she? and what has rachel got to do with it? nothing. blame has won all year, vs horses such as quality road. who has zenyatta faced this year that is comparable to those two?

Who the hell are you and what have you done with Smooth Operator?

It's called playing both sides of the fence.

Yawn.

It was mildly shocking to read something written by him that I completely agreed with and was pretty well thought out.

Of course it's a "clever" dodge for when she loses.

Lol … good one, NTamm


No bigger Z fan on the board, but I gotta keep it real…

Peppers Pride

Does Blame dance before his races? Does he have songs written about him? Most importantly, is he sensitive about the feelings of others?

zenyatta could win by open lengths every race, but she doesn't want to hurt the other horses' feelings, so she lets them lead for most of the race and politely passes them at the very end. Such a caring horse is not going to let her army of fans down by losing the biggest race of all. She has all those old ladies, the people who showed up at Hot Springs International, the guy who chanted "Zenyatta" for 18 hours straight at Del Mar, and others who live vicariously through her to think about.

When zenyatta wins HOY this year, the Mosses need to invite the one person who is symbolic of all their fans to the awards ceremony. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-A1ps_m7Jk

Congratulations on your first two almost accurate posts on DT!!!!

Wow, I would have guessed Smooth Operator would be much younger than that.

lol
why start now?

Final quarter in :23.60 … breezing, no less … galloped out seven in 1:26.20 according to DRF.com


Like my man CSC says … looks like John is starting to 'tighten the screws'...

I see you've come back from your vacation.

BCC has so much potential this year....if....well wait...nvm.

Blind Luck could face Zenyatta in Lady's Secret
 

Suddenly, the Lady's Secret looks like it might actually be interesting...

Blind Luck could face Zenyatta in Lady's Secret

Blind Luck has been pretty awesome this year on every surface her little hooves have touched this year. I don't think she beats Zenyatta though.

So if Blind Luck goes in the Lady's Secret, where does Zenyatta go?

She'll have a date with Giacomo or Tiago.

That foal wouldn't beat a trotter to the quarter.

I know!

I think there's a 20% chance they do something really stupid like that though.

not that this was a serious question, but if you're going to beat Zenyatta, you can't beat her at hear own game, ask Life is Sweet... That being said, if Blind Luck were to beat her and then win the Distaff, I think she's would have a great argument for horse of the year.

It absolutely was a serious question.

Agreed, they want no part of her.

Would love to see the big mare school that little filly in the lane

But BL will bail before the race … just like RA did in Arky…

Or just like Zenyatta did against Nashoba's Key or just like Zenyatta did on the KY Oaks undercard last year.

Or just like Zenyatta would have if Sea of Stars had come over for the BCC.

Would expect JS to scratch her again if the strip comes up too wet for the BC...

Of course you would.
