Zenyatta has a great cut in terms of her PP's ... she falls a long way short in a lot of different other areas though.
Here are cuts of a few good in-form So. Cal horses The Bid dismantled when he went out West.
* Beau's Eagle (19-9-3-4 lifetime) didn't fare so well in his two meetings:
* Flying Paster (13-for-27 lifetime and voted California horse of the year in '78) he was basically owned by The Bid. Aaron Hesz swears Flying Paster was a sensationally good horse.
* Relaunch (not exactly the best of horses - but a damn good sire. He sired a Breeders Cup Classic winner in Skywalker - and was the dam sire of BC Classic winner Ghostzapper) He got destroyed by the Bid in two meetings.
* Valdez (8-for-16 lifetime classy Grade 1 winner)
Obviously, The Bid faced a lot better competition in the East ... but he just shipped out to So. Cal and absolutely curb stomped all of the best horses out there. He went 1:20 flat in the Malibu off a layoff.
