Even Andrew B. might need some rally wax some days. I made my own Beyer figs for years and had much fun doing so and credit him for his contributions but believe everything that comes out of his pie hole not!

That has nothing to do with my post. I was going by your words. As usual you wan to move the discussion around from your errors. Not playing that game again. Keep the laughs coming.

Not at all.
As has been pointed out: "Type “Zenyatta, Ladys Secret” into Google, Bing or Yahoo and you don’t see Daily Racing Form, Blood-Horse or Thoroughbred Times among the top visited sites.
Instead you see Forbes, CBS Sports, NBC Sports, Yahoo Sports, USA Today, ESPn Sports."
She is one for the history books, whether she wins the BCC or not.

I typed it into Google and Bloodhorse was the first link returned. DRF was third. Thoroughbred times was fourth. I didn't see one single link for Forbes, CBS Sports, NBC Sports, Yahoo Sports, USA Today or ESPN.
Weird.
And I even typed it exactly as you had it, with quotes surrounding....

Pace, perhaps I didn't specify. Within first 48 hours of her magnificent win.
It IS rather unusual for the non racing media to over-report stuff that happens in our lowly, vastly ignored sport, which is why it was pertinent.

If others did the same, I might just do that. But people are posting their opinion, and so will I.

This is a good argument. Unfortunately for Lava Man, he didn't go undefeated in his career......

Historically the best Californians have beaten whoever was in front of them when they shipped. Lava Man really couldn't.
