I really dont know of anyone that doesnt respect her. I do know many that don't respect the vast majority of her competition. Sometimes the Zenyattaites blur that line.

It is a huge accomplishment to win that many races in a row, especially with her running style. But in horseracing the strength of schedule and margin of victory are just as important. She can win the BC Classic and retire 20 for 20 and have her special place in history. But those believing that her overall racing record places her with the greats of the game just don't have a very good understanding of the history of the sport.
