The greatest thoroughbred living will give everyone another chance to watch beauty in motion tomorrow as she looks to tie the modern record of 16 straight unrestricted victories.
The Big Mare has given every indication that she will win the Apple Blossom for the second time in as many attempts tomorrow. She looked great galloping over the Oaklawn course and certainly looks to have the competition over a barrel in this one. Of course nothing is certain, see Rachel Alexandra's last one, it's likely that in her next race Zenyatta will look to extend the streak beyond the great Citation and Cigar.
The only question that matters though is who will be in that next race? Will Rachel Alexandra's connections finally step up and take on the real champ, or will a new Dare and Go type emerge? Only time will tell. Until then let's watch the Horse of the Decade (which by default makes her the horse of the Century) Zenyatta!!
On a side note: Thanks again for trying Mr. Cella!!! You got us the closest yet.

Rachel could appear next in the La Troienne at Churchill Downs Derby week, but I have my doubts Jackson will be willing to face Zenyatta that early in the year.
ReplyDeleteZenyatta is beyond words, I can't wait to see her run Friday, it should be quite a show, it always is with her.
