Even in Japanese, the 3-year-old filly wins the Arc. Watch for the white nose roll and jockey in green silks and cap towards the back of the pack. When she makes her move, it’s a thing of beauty. There’s no doubt Zarkava is one of the best in the world. Wouldn't it be a spectacular day to see her matched up with another undefeated filly, Zenyatta? Battle of the Z's...
