The longer Jackson waits to commit to a race that Zenyatta could ship out for the more sympathy there will be for the connections opting to stay in California. If they know right now the Beldame is the spot they could meet and they don't show up they will lost a lot of voters for HOY even if Zenyatta wins the Classic.

that would be a good idea.

I also just dont think Zenyatta is fast enough or good enough to win the classic.. After last year's success the Euro's are going to send some real race horses over here for the 2nd year the dirt classic is going to be run on a turf equivalent. Zenyatta would be lucky to hit the board.

Her only chance is to beat Rachel in a race on dirt and beat the boys in the Goodwood or something.
