Once again, 'on paper' Beyer's pre-race assessment made sense. Zenyatta had been winning with unimpressive speed figures against largely unimpressive horses. Her 112 Beyer in the BCC was indeed her lifetime best race and it was a combination of factors that led to that success. Seems like every horse fired in the race but in the stretch, Zenyatta just made it look easy. She stepped up and DID IT.

Well if you consider a one turn race at Belmont the same as a two turn race at Aquduct, then we probably don't have a lot to talk about. bye.

Once again, this is your opinion that you are trying to present as fact. Saying that comparing past and present champions is meaningless is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of ,because you have to compare the horses of today to the ones who came before. And yeah, I dissed your spelled because I couldn't figure out at first what the heck you were saying.

Opps, typo sorry, yeah meaningless. lol. Yup, Beyer speed rating are meaningless too. Beyer said Zenyatta, based on speed rating, would not even hit the board in the BCC. So much for Beyer. FYI, my point was Ruffian never ran this one turn Belmont race so RA never beat Ruffian record. Care to respond to that? Or would you prefer to ding my spelling and site know nothing bean counters?

Do you mean meaningless, not meaningly? Different era comparisons are meaningful. To say they are not is just your opinion. Andrew Beyer has compiled speed ratings for horses for at least the last 20 years. He's highly respected, but I suppose you're going to say that's meaningly (meaningless) too.

Here is a perfect example of why numbers and different era comparisions are meaningly. Ruffian ran this race at Aqueduct (sp) and ran around 2 turns. RA at Belmont and ran around 1 turn. Two entirely diferent races.

She is a really good horse, but my vote goes to Zenyatta.

three of the greatest horses of all time are racing this year (not hyperbole) and the fact that they havent raced each other - especially as two are 3 yr olds - is a toal disgrace. flat racing should be ashamed of itself. DISGRACE. ps stars would win :)

I took MTB in the BC Classic. Honestly, if it had been a mile and a quarter race I think Rachel would have dug in and gutted it out.

MTB gave it all he could after a terrible trip. Kudos to RA for pulling it out! Actually hit the trifecta on this race and won a cool $206

I just saw that Philly from Venezuela, Bambera, no doubt hands down a match I would travel anywhere to see. Bambera is just as amazing as Rachel, they're bringing her to race for a while in Gulfsrteam, hopefully somtime next year, the two will meet in a match. A race worth watchin, Rachel Alxandra vs Bambera
