Would be nice, even if it is run on the junk. But I doubt very much Rachael will ever run another race. I hope Zenyatta at least goes in the Classic. It would be nice to see her actually face a few horses that can run.

She will run again. Maybe not this year, but out of all the crazy ideas to get them together, I can see this one possibly working.

Why should Rachael have to go out West and Zenyatta always get to stay home? Look back at the campaign Rachael has had this year...6 different racetracks?

As a fan I really hope it happens. I like your optimism, but I would set the odds of it happening at about 50/1.

It could be 10 million....racing cant even get the best two horses on the same track...and they are the same sex. Its so pathetic it borders on comical.

If they made a 10 million, I would say 100% they would face each other.

They should run the Classic at the Fairplex. Zenyatta gets to stay home and Rachael gets dirt to run on. So what, if it like a 5 turn race.
