Zenyatta to ......

Postby bdw0617 » Tue Oct 28, 2008 2:59 pm

I don't think it's a stretch AT ALL to think she might be starting the dubai world cup next year.

I mean.. who else is!?

curlin's more than likely done.. i hope not.. but more than likely

well armed more than likely done

only curlin would stop her from going, and she'd have some decent horses over seas.. Asaitic boy if he's still in training then, and Honor Devil is a very good one, very good, might be better than AB, but zenyatta is everybit as good if not better.

Actually there is something to stop her, John Sherriffs. He wasn't a fan of girl vs. boys action before but watching the Eight Belles tragedy helped make him even more gun-shy sounds like. He figures the boys play rougher and he does like having a filly go through it although I'd argue if anybody could get through it unscathed it'd be her. He said it'd be up to the Mosses though. Maybe they'll do it although they could've insisted on the Classic and didn't. Who knows.

Having fun with a hypothetical who could go, someone was thinking Raven's Pass might then go over and do that race. He definitely is looking to repeat in the Classic they said. Probably that whole Santa Anita BC, part deux for 2009 that snookered them in.

yeah you might be right. there is no reason looking at raven's pass he wouldn't take to dirt. he might be the most veristile (and good) horse i have ever seen.
