Also, the belmont is a classic and you are talking about an undefeated horse going for a triple crown. I was there, 128,000 people deep in the rain. I was also there for Funny Cide and the next year when he won the JCGC in front of like 7,000 people.

When was the last time Zenyatta had a crowd as small as 7k? I agree, they need to challenge her and I said as much earlier. But whether they do or not, she is still a draw and great for racing.

yep, i watched. didn't bet a dime, so how does my watching help? i watch racing sometimes for hours, without a big horse on the card. how did it help that all those folks showed up with their stupid z hats and signs? did handle increase? ownership? did the fan base grow?

as for a draw, she is. i didn't say she wasn't. what i said was if they keep her racing, i hope it's to put her where she belongs.
