    Breeders Cup World Championships 2009

    The Breeders Cup World Championships are quickly approaching.

    The two day event is November 6th and 7th.

    The Breeders Cup is being held at Santa Anita for the 2nd year in a row during the Oak Tree meet.

    For news leading up to the Breeders Cup visit - http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/breeders-cup

    The big question leading up to the Breeders Cup is: Will Zenyatta face the boys in the Classic or stick to racing againsit her gender in the Ladies Classic? Her camp has said she is leaning towards the Classic so I guess we'll see what happens.

     Can't wait!! I really like Zenyatta. I'd like to see her beat the boys. In my opinion, I don't really see a colt headed to the Classic that I don't think she could beat, although I'm a little nervous to see her run against the boys for the first time in such a huge race. On the other hand, I'm sure she'd dominate the Distaff (Ladies Classic...whatever). Whichever way she heads, I'll be watching for sure!! Beautiful mare.

     

    PS. I notice you have Standardbreds in your profile. I grew up with them, they have a soft spot in my heart. They are such nice animals Smile

    I like both Big Z and Rachel. I'm kinda bummed Rachel isn't going but oh well save her up for next year. I'd like to see Zenyatta face the males. It would be good for the sport if she did. I don't know if she would beat the males but it would be a great race to watch with Mine That Bird, Summer Bird, etc being in that race. She would dominate the Ladies Classic for a fact. If her camp wants to win HOTY they have to enter her in the Classic and have her win it. Either way I'll be watching her do her thing. She's a beautiful mare that's for sure.

    Before I moved to North Carolina we had a local harness track near Pittsburgh that I would go to and take pictures of the horses. I've also been to The Little Brown Jug (2005 & 2006) & The Hambletonian (2007). The horse in my signature is my favorite racehorse. I don't own any Standies but I sure love to watch them on the track.

    Even without Zenyatta in the Ladies Classic it should be a great day of racing.

    Re: Day 2 Winners

    Thanks, SBW! I had to miss yesterday's races and only saw 4 races today. I knew that when I got home I would be able to find out who won the "big one" today by checking your post! I may have to see if I can find a video of Z winning the classic... Thanks again for the posts!

    Re: Day 2 Winners

    It's no problem. I'm always glued to my TV during the Breeders Cup. I love seeing the great horses from around the world all in one place.

    Youtube has it up - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ud_XPH6Eix4

    There was excitement when the horses were loading into the gate. Quality Road threw an absoulte fit when it was time for him to load. He ended up being scratched.

    Z was on top of her game. She truly is one of the greats. I think I remember them saying today she is the first female to win the Classic.

    It's too bad both Z and Rachel couldn't win horse of the year. They both deserve to win it.

    Whoo hoo, it's all about the filly power this year! I've loved watching Z and Mike on Jockeys, what a great team they make.

    They sure do make a great team. I hope her camp brings her back next year to try and defend her title. If they don't we still have Rachel to enjoy next year.

    Re: Breeders Cup World Championships 2009

    I just watched the video of Z winning the Breeders Cup. Wow! I was focusing on her ears: pinned for most of the race, but it appeared as soon as she took the lead, THEY CAME FORWARD! She must like being in front!
