Why isn't the Pacific Classic next on Zenyatta's schedule?
 

It is three weeks away, at Del Mar so Shirreffs won't have to be away from her, doesn't involve crossing the dreaded Rockies, and is at a distance that is supposed to be Zenyatta's best distance.

Give it up guy, she barely beat Rinterval at almost level weight.

Some horrendous Eastern slow-poke will win the Pacific Classic for the 4th straight year.

because they don't like the del mar surface silly! :D

i wish they would go there instead. the top 'cap horse out there now is awesome gem, surely he's not a scary competitor?

The problem with you is that you have yet to be mesmerized by her paddock prance.

I suppose that she doesn't have to actually beat them since she has already beaten the world's best horses in last year's BC Classic. It is a given that she would win the Pacific Classic by a measured length, so why bother. The racing world demands that she race next in the Zenyatta Stakes.

who cares? the race is usually a joke anyway. bets i've made at del mar this year......zero

oh, you're just a great big hater. how dare you detract from her and her legend by suggesting she take on males?! the obvious next step is the zenyatta. i mean, it's so cool, she's running in the stakes named for her. even secretariat and man o'war didn't manage that feat.

Z doesn't need a 10f race now

Hirsch was her 5th race on the season

Only needs one more start a few weeks before the Cup

Yeah, it stinks, but that's the way the game is played now.

Relatively fresh horses seem to perform better on Championship weekend.

Not to mention the fact that it's getting late in her 6-YEAR-OLD season.

relatively freshy? how could she be anything other than relatively fresh? she just made her 18th lifetime start. at six. lol do you listen to yourself at all regarding this subject?
wait, you're that woman who wore all the zenyatta apparely to the track the other day, aren't you?

:tro: guy was thrilled about the payoff on his $2 bet no doubt.

18 starts at 6 does suck, but she did not start until late in her 3yr old seasson. So that stat is a bit off.

i am well aware that she didn't race at two. in almost four years of racing, she's now got 18 starts. and he's worried about her staying fresh? sounds more like laying the groundwork should she lose, the continued mentioning of her being six. SIX, holy crap she has one foot in the grave. :rolleyes:

That was the first thing that went through my mind. A little tap dancing and excuse making in case the queen doesn't win or even start championship weekend :rolleyes: for that matter.

Nice tank top in that video and the Hirsch was her 4th start of the year.

Championship weekend?

:rolleyes:

Zenyatta fans don't like numbers.

My bad
