Maybe she might be an underlay in her next race, but isnt good too have the possibility of a nice horse coming up for racing?
How much longer is she going to go? The BC Marathon?

For older horses it's one though. The Alabama is for 3 year old fillies.

She's not.

Royal Delta? If Royal Delta stays sound, that horse can't warm her up.

Maybe not, but it makes it fun to see how good she will be. I'm sure everyone knocking her here, did not like Zenyatta, so they are holding that against her.

or they're looking at a race with unbiased eyes and just stating facts. which are then interpreted as knocks by those unable to see anything related to zenyatta without a soft golden halo around it.
