19 in a row

I'm sure some of you saw the race on ESPN.

Zenyatta improved her record to 19-0 in her last race in front of her Hollywood Park crowd.

Now she will go and try to win her 20th and final race at the Breeders Cup Classic in Churchill Downs on November 6th.

BTW, she won that race last year becoming the first filly/mare to do so. However, she will try to win this race on the dirt course and put to rest the limited number of skeptics.

I'll get a video of today's race when one becomes available.

I thought you were talking about a female race car driver. I was about to ask if she was hot.

[tarheelblue89]

Well you can still ask if you're into that kinda stuff.

Skew would still hit it

Was this really necessary Hawk?

I mean we already know Skew would hit it.

I saw Rachel Alexandra racing the weekend of the Traver's Stakes in Saratoga Springs. She was a 2-5 favorite that race and lost to a 20-1. The day was pretty much dedicated to Rachel. They gave everyone Rachel Alexandra pins as they entered and everything.

Before then I had questions as to which horse was better... but now I think there's no question that Zenyatta > Rachel Alexandra

sometimes my firm grasp of the obvious is too much for me to hold back

IMO it was never a contest, Zenyatta was always better. But that doesn't mean Rachel wasn't good and it was really sad to her flame out this year and retire.

The lasting image I'll have of Rachel.
