Well it was an exciting Saturday as the two most popular horses in racing right now where in action. Their seperated by mere minutes and niether of them disapointed. I could tell you about them, but I think Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta will speak for themselves.
Rachel's 19 3/4 romp in the Mother Goose
Zenyatta's 2 1/2 length win in the Vanity
As you can see in Zenyatta's race, TVG called that perticler hour the Girl Power Hour, that would be because of her and Rachel. Now even though Jess Jackson said that he would not take Rachel to Cali, that doesn't mean they won't meet up somewhere, somehow. This weekend, Jerry Moss the owner of Zenyatta (with his wife Ann), said that he is willing to ship East for to face Rach. I won't hold my breath for this ever happening, but if it does I would be crossing my fingers to go. One place they won't go most likely is my hometrack of Delaware Park, sigh if the Delware Handicap was held a little bit later in the year, then it could work. Either way, I have a feeling that it will be fablous field.
And wouldn't it be something if I'm surprised by either or both them coming. Yes I know wishful thinking, but it can happen. Will it, doubt it.
Next weekend is the UN, the question is can last year's upset winner Presious Passion show that he can run with the big boys again. We'll have to see!
