LOL ... Do you remember what happened in last year's BCC, NTamm1215 … when those two Euros came to Southern Cal and made Curlin look like some overmatched allowance runner?
Twice Over took a 10f G1 in Britain this season ... and beat BCC champion Raven's Pass in a G3 mile last season.
This was a VERY classy 4yo colt which ran his race at Anita ... but still was no match for Z.
This alone speaks volumes about her ability.
And Rip Van Winkle looks like the classic Euro miler, but he still managed to get within a length of superhorse Sea The Stars in a 10f G1 this season.
At any rate, that BCC field was FAR better than anything RA faced this year.
To deny the great undefeated champion mare Zenyatta a HotY award would be an absolute disgrace for the sport, in my opinion...
