I said it in another thread but you would think the ardent Zenyatta fans would look at Goldikova and understand why she has universal respect when their horse doesnt. I think it is extremely shortsighted (and dumb) for people to say that Zenyatta is the "greatest filly ever" when I believe Goldikova has had a more accomplished career. And Goldikova probably wasn't as good as Zarkava. Despite backing a horse that raced the vast majority of her career on a gimmick surface, Zenyatta fans seem awful quick to dismiss turf fillies.
