Santa Margarita Entries

[andtheyreoff]

Here are the entries for that race, plus a personal morning line.

1. Dance to My Tune  30/1

2. Pretty Katherine    50/1

3. Made for Magic      50/1

4. Pretty Unusual        8/1

5. Strking Dancer        5/1

6. Power of Voodoo   30/1

7. Gripholm Castle     15/1

8. Zenyatta                 1/2

9. Floating Heart        12/1

I feel Zenyatta should win quite easily. Think about it: We'll have a 10 race winning streak against 15-15 in the Apple Blossom. Imagine that!

Thanks for the entries ATO! She's giving away 12 to 20 pounds but should win it anyway.

will you book my 100,000 bet. It will be the easiest 50K I made in a while.

Z lays over the field. No pace in the race. zenyatta will be flying late once again.

Just heard Zenyatta is 1-9 on the morning line. Sounds like Jon White still has BCCOS (Breeders' Cup Classic Obsession Syndrome).

Defineatly weakest field she has caught in the last 2 years.... **Yawn**

A tougher feild than RA is facing

ATO,

No 99-1 on the M/L?

Powerofvoodoo or Made for Magic at 99/1 seems more appropriate

I made Power of Voodoo 30/1 because she has been racing on turf, so main track ability is still up in the air.

I made Zenyatta 1/2 for several reasons:

• The competition. This is, believe it or not, a good field Zenyatta is facing. I believe there are 2 graded stakes winners this year.
• Zenyatta ran a 115 in the BC Classic, but I only gave her a 98 in the Clement Hirsch and a 102 in the Lady's Secret. If she goes back to that form, one of her competitiors could overtake her.
• The layoff. Zenyatta has been working well, but there's still a 5 month layoff against a rather strong field.

Anyways, I expect Zenyatta to do what she usually does, but I have no idea why she has an offical 1/9 morning line. Has anyone seen this is recent times?

PS- Rachel is 1/5 for her race. Hype can take you a long way in California.

ATO, while I say again I don't understand numbers, you should know that Zenyatta only does what she has to do to win, regardless of how slow they have gone or how fast. She has stepped up to the plate 14 times and won all 14, some fast, some slow. Her form is there but why waste it if she does not have to to win? Smart mare! Shes never let the fans down and her works are good. However I doubt she will go off at 1-9, more 1-5 maybe. Maybe less. Rachel on the other hand, has not really turned in much in the works department, and although she should handle this field with ease, with all the hype about her not being 100% coupled with the fact that she has been off a long time, it would seem to be an indicator of the odds on her. She will  probably go off at shorter odds than Zenyatta.
