Given she is not facing Briecat and Anaabas Creation and Dawn after Dawn ,Zenyatta is in for a double digit defeat and finish in the last 1/3rd of the pack  in the BC Classic.

Unlike RA who won three Grade 1's against males taking on all comers , Zenyatta never left CA and faced the same , at best , Grade 3 horses over and over and over and over.

She will get dominated , and of course , after the race , to save her value as a broodmare and injury will be discovered to account for th 20 length plus defeat

I'm with you televin in so far as I think she won't be winning, but I think she has a bit of class and is obviously proven on the track, and with the race being as poor as it is I'd say there's every chance she will run on from rear past tiring horses to get up for 3rd, or similar. She would walk away with her reputation somewhat intact, on the back of that I'd say. I simply couldn't have her for the win at likely prices.

I'm sure she'll pass some horses.  If the over/under is 20 lengths, include me in people betting the under.

Last, beaten 6 lengths, is still LAST. i think she runs in the lower half of the field (8th or worse) All those "easy" victories were all hard riden until the last 1/16 or so, after she had them collared. So, what is Zenyatta? About 2-3 lengths better than she actually runs.

Take into account the FATSER PACE.

Take into account the BETTER CLASS.

Take into account the males who RUN THE ENTIRE DISTANCE.

What do you have? A horse running her heals off to keep close early and too far back to make a winnable move to get home first.

8th..beaten 9 3/4 lengths at a laughable 5/2.

Love the trash talk but the horses do the real talking on the racetrack.  So, televin says 20 lengths and you say 8th, beaten 9 3/4 lengths.  Could you be a little more specific? 

There's a guy I used to see at the OTB who would scream I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT... I TOLD YOU ALL!  NO ONE LISTENED!  2-4 ALL DAY, 2-4 ALL DAY LONG...

Then he would disappear for two weeks or as his funds ran out and he waited for his unemployment cheque.
