I've learned a lot in this thread from you and DrugS. I thought that Zenyatta looked extremely stiff in the early going of the race. After finding out that she was not warmed up in the post parade, I thought that explained why she looked so uncomfortable in the early going of the race and why she fell so far behind.
But after listening to you guys, I now realize that Zenyatta was travelling perfect in the early stages of the race. The reason she fell so far behind is because she is incapable of comfortably going faster than :38 and change from the gate. Thanks for teaching me that.
Here is one of the best mares of all times that could breeze 3 furlongs in :36 and change from the gate with her eyes closed and you guys (or at least DrugS) think she can't comfortably break :38 and change. Thanks for the info guys.
