Zenyatta Breeders Cup 2010
The Breeders’ Cup Classic will likely be taking at Churchill Downs at close to 6:00 pm and all eyes will probably be on Zenyatta, the undefeated filly following 19 races (13 in Team 1 and 4 in Team 2) that’s hoping to pick up the $3 million winning prize along together with his twentieth victory.
Zenyatta might get some competitors from Goldikova who will be making an attempt to repeat the good results it had last year at the Breeders.
Owned by the Wertheimer family Goldikova may be the queen of the track in Europe. The horse who is the daughter ‘Anabaa’ will be ridden by Olivier Peslier and they will try to have their 3rd consecutive victory inside the Breeders’ Cup Mile which might be historic .
Other race that’s value your time may be the Breeder’s Cup Turf, around 2,400 meters, using the participation of ‘Workforce’, owned by Khalid Abdullah, who lately won the Arc de Triomphe, and ‘Behkabad’, owned by the Aga Khan, who came in fourth inside the race.
Impress your fellow Breeders Cup viewers with these fun details just before you watch Zenyatta’s next race :
- Zenyatta was purchased for the bargain price of just $60,000 — because she had ringworm.
- Zenyatta is named for The Police’s third album, Zenyatta Mondatta.
- One of her owners, Jerry Moss, is the man who signed The Police to A&M Records.
- Zenyatta’s brother Street Sense won the 2007 Kentucky Derby.
- She is known for her come-from-behind kick.
- Today will be her final race.
