I'm for Rachel but I can see arguments for both. Zenyatta won this race a lot more easier than the margin of victory demonstrates, and this group was better than any group rachel beat, I dont care what surface it was run on.
But in Rachel's defense, she beat better horses more often, travelled to 6? race tracks to do it. Sure she aniliated a couple of very weak fields in the KY Oaks and the Moothe Goose, but Zenyatta beat weak fields every time she ran (except the BC Classic). I'm not sold on Life is Sweet's win elevating the field's Zenyatta beat all year either.
