I'm expecting an 11:00 Jess Jackson press conference announcing that Rachael is now pointing towards the Apple Blossom.


Seriously I hope the rumors are false.

Zenyatta brings out the very best in her competition.

Hopefully these rumors are false and her 102 Beyer wasn't a going away gift.

I did notice when Smith pulled her up after the race he sat there for a minute looking down at her left front leg... Anyone else notice that?

I sincerely hope not. The starch has already been taken out of this stretch of the season, this would just take the air out of the balloon completely.

Here is the thing, Smith would have never stayed on her back and galloped her home if it was anything close to serious.

She should have easily been clipped while in that trouble, hopefully it is just a minor scrap or cut.

There pre-race answers sure lead people to believe she is a-ok. We didn't some of the "We'll see how she comes out and figure out a plan" type crap

Doesn't it typically take up to 72 hours to really know if something serious yet not severe happened.. We all know she didnt snap a leg off.

I was there Saturday and took a ton of photos, I even got some as her groom was walking her back to the barn after the race. She was walking fine then and had no visible injuries. I just checked my photos and zoomed in on the legs to look for any injuries and didn't see anything noticeable, no cuts or bleeding.

Hope she's ok...

i know, it seems like racing is taking it on the chin lately. as if the finacial times are not bad enough its like horse racing wise theres not enough good news or luck for the game. other than the derby build up, which has become a crap shoot of a race anyway. there are very few stars that get people interested... the game needed this apple blossom and now thats shot too. i hope its just a rumor.

I've heard she was out of her stall and looking good today. Hope somebody can independently confirm.
