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...
Awesome race.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it there's always some male in the room that begrudges "well, she's spotted eleven pounds". Come on, the way she got through that traffic and exploded for the win?
I'd love a meeting of the two Z's as well. And I'm loving European racing.
What a horse! Even though I knew the result, I was still worried she wouldn't find the racing room to get off the rail to win.
ReplyDeleteBring on the Battle of the Z's!
Val - Folk Opera (IRE) was fantastic at Woodbine on Saturday. I wish we had the chance to see Zarkava as well. Maybe next year...
