Watch the replay, the head-on up the backstretch.   She\'s just loping along, taking 2 strides for the other horses\' 3.

She\'s so huge! And so beautiful, just look at her, a prancin\' and a dancin\'- Spectacular! Reminded me of last summer with Rachel-same crowd reaction. They are both amazing horses!

Never seen anything like that - wow ! Wondered if she was all right 1st time down the lane and backstretch and one championship later imo - what a character ...

This is funny.

Getting ready to go downstairs for Embassy cocktails, followed by dinner at Tokyo Wako. I\'ll post my thoughts on Zenyatta later.

I\'ll try to come up with something.

I\'ve seen this before. 1975 Dulcia coming from dead last won the first National Thoroughbred Championship under Bill Shoemaker Trained by Charlie Whittingham. Royal Glint second and Tizna 3rd. Also in the race was Forceten, Ancient Title, Allez France, Messenger Song, Stonewalk and L\'Enjoleur.

Even before sight\'s post, once I got over the shock and awe of seeing that performance, one of my first thoughts was \"I can\'t remember his play, but I bet Paul is digging that result!\". Hope you had a great day!

It seems I left off a couple outstanding horses in Avatar, Diablo and Susan\'s Girl.
