Have yet to see the race since I was at work. I know that racels people said the goal, win or lose today, is the bc. Whether that remains the case we'll have to wait and see. I agree with others who posted that it gets old every time one horse gets a mention, within a few posts, here comes the other. Its a testament to both that they Are only compared to each other.
However, much like stories with two sides, I think the truth about both of these horses lie somewhere in between. They aren't as good as some claim, nor as bad as others say. They both have done amazing things, yet both can be questioned for who they did those things against. Questioning their competition is entirely valid. As for zen being undefeated, that's a rarity for sure -but one has to recall that horses such as peppers pride have done the same. I don't see anyone talking hof for her. And regarding HOY last year....gimme a break. This year has nothing to do with that.
Here's to continued good health and good luck to two exciting distaffers.
