Rachel tried a lot of new things this year--let's give her credit for the things she did this year over last .
Lose.
Never ran in a G1 until August.
Had races invented and tailored for her .
Did not run against the males she " demolished " last year.--or any males at all
Acquired a " big, new body "--ostensibly from Earl Scheib
Forgot her blinding acceleration at the far turn
Screwed up her lead changes
You Retchelistas sure have some nerve mocking the Zentards all right .
Zenyatta has indeed run in the same crap G1s as last year---boring, unimaginative, but perfect. And yes, she only shipped once .
She has held her form and her condition., and her body also got bigger each year--or didn't anyone notice ??.
Frequent flyer miles, changes of equipment, and your hopes and snark are not going to change Rachel into last year's model .
That said, I fervently hope she wins Sunday and goes to the Classic .
