Jerry Jamgotchian is really going to try to endear himself to Californians more by being the first owner to beat Zenyatta.

I'd recommend if you have the time to watch Boxeur Des Rues' maiden win in link below - an extraordinary win but extremely flattering on him - looks like a huge step up in class now

Would love to see Jaycito turn the tables on JP's Gusto. I think the 2 turns and added distance suits him perfectly.

Just watched the replay. Pretty nice win considering he raced 4 wide for the entire race.

I really would love to see Satans Quick Chick beat her, but it's pretty sad that last year's 23-1 Raven Run winner shipping in off an 8-month layoff is Zenyatta's 2nd biggest challenge this year.

A double-digit P4 payout. Yawn.

You know if you take away Switch's dirt and turf efforts, she has never finished off the board on synthetics. And at Hollywood she is 3-2-1-0 including a win over champion Blind Luck.

Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but if she's good enough to beat Blind Luck with the right pace setup, maybe things can set up for her here.

Switch just just barely beat Emmafitz...I hope for Zenyatta's sake she is not embarrassed by her.

She'll probably win by a neck, but you can think outside the box a bit and find reasons for a few of these to upset the big mare. We'll see.

You can?

And a few of them?

Pass me the blunt, Travis.


Barring injury, DQ, or Smith falling off - she'll win. There's a decent amount of pace in there.
