Title: Weird Question
Post by: martoon on December 23, 2009, 08:34:02 AM
Is it just me or is anyone else surprised that Zenyatta is still showing up on the worktab with breezes after she retired?  They say they are letting her down but I would be scared to death with every step she takes going fast on that weird synthetic track.  One bad step like Carlsbad had last week and it\'s a great American tragedy.  Jogging or galloping I understand, but she is breezing some decent speeds.  I\'d get her in in a round pen or find some other way to take the edge off and get her to a farm already.  Have you seen any other super valuable horse do this after they retired?   thoughts?

Can\'t see why these connections would be scared by the synthetic track when they raced and won on it numerous times.

She could still probably handle some claimers.....
