Just take a look at what the filly Switch has gone on to accomplish since pushing Zenyatta to kick in the turbo's to run her down in this race. A 2nd place finish in the B.C. F&M Sprint. Then she returns to California to win the G1 La Brae Stakes and the G1 Santa Monica Stakes. For Zenyatta to be able to run down a filly that possesses the incredible turn of foot that Switch does like she did in this race just further franks how great Zenyatta really was. IMO.
I will be at the breeders cup on nov. the 6th to watch Zenyatta go at it just one last time.. She has meant more to me than I can describe in words here to all Her fans. I will be there and I will be standing shouting at the top of my lungs as She wins Her 20th race beating Lookin at lucky and Haynesfield whom i imagine will be there. *Zenyatta* will win horse of the year this year and will go down as the best filly/mare to ever race. c. Hawkes 11-6-10 God bless Zenyatta!!!!!!!!
This fabulous race-mare just has gear, upon gear, upon gear to draw upon on. She win's with her ears pricked every time. Which means you've yet to really see how fast Zenyatta can actually run. Because when horses are in an all out drive, they pin their ears back. When it comes time for the Classic. There will be a lot colt's in an all out drove in that long Churchill Downs stretch. This mare will pick them all off, and likely win with ears still pricked again!! What a champion Zenyatta is!!
She gave us that happy Hollywood ending the CA fans wanted from her. The horse that keeps on giving. Pepper is no longer alone now for the NA modern record. GBeret, I hope you enjoy watching her in KY next month. I know you will. And its a memory that will stay with you forever...
Pay careful attention to when Zenyatta comes off of the last turn. She got completely off of her correct lead. She went about 3 or 4 strides with both front legs out in front of her. Watch as Mike Smith quickly corrects the problem, and still runs down Switch with just under a furlong left. The same Switch that beat Blind Luck in the G2 Hollywood Oaks in June. The same Blind Luck that will likely be the B.C. Ladies Classic favorite. Incredible that she just doesn't know how to lose.
@GBeret83 I didn't see it at first, but now I see what you're talking about. Good catch! Switch is a nice filly with a very impressive turn of foot. The Ladies Classic is shaping up to be an extremely wide-open and very strong race.

They need to breed her to Megdalia D'oro (Rachel's dad) and breed Rachel to Street Cry (Zen's dad).
This horse is fucking INCREDIBLE!
