yes he did, but like I mentioned in my response there seems to be this growing majority coming out of no where when I read many posts, its just not accurate.

Zenyatta is very very very good. I have no idea if she is better than Lady's Secret, or Susans Girl, or any other great mare from the past. She runs on a different surface 80% of the time.

it is pretty accurate i think. why do you think these conversations are going on on every horse racing message board on the net?

The narrative that people think Zenyatta IS the best horse ever, or even the best female ever is not accurate in totality. Yet that is the perception of anyone that supports Zenyatta.

I would put her in the group, but its a pretty good field.

its not perception. its reality. not everyone, but definitely more than you are portraying. listen to what people have said and what they write.

i would put her in the group as well. just not near the top. not yet.

me neither, she needs to win a couple more classics, or maybe next year we can let her slide back to the distaff.

I am wondering what the criteria is to get her into the class of say an Azeri or Personal Ensign, its often inferred she needs to do more, I am just wondering exactly what.
