- Jerry and Ann Moss champion Zenyatta needed every yard of the stretch at Del Mar on Sunday to remain unbeaten with a close-call victory in the $300,000 Clement L. Hirsch Stakes (G1).
Racing Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith left the five-year-old Street Cry (Ire) mare with plenty of work to do in the final furlong, but Zenyatta showed her determination with a furious closing rush from the far outside. She steadily reeled in pacesetter Lethal Heat and runner-up Anabaas Creation (Ire) to prevail by a head in the first photo finish of her outstanding career.

Never in doubt.
Her most amazing, MIND BLOWING victory thus far. MAN she NEVER gave up. Kept pumping until it was over. What a horse.

I say this is her most impressive performance, she had no business winning this at the 1/8th pole.
That is a great horse, and even if she didnt win she is still great cuz a horse like her is very rare, u dont always need a winning title to be great, the thing is, is she does this consistainly without fail or flaw the same thing and outruns all other horses who have been up against her thats without doubt.
A nose is as good as a mile. :) She is so classy!
I've always said that it was a great thing that Zenyatta was thinking for both herself and Mike Smith in this race. It was only Zenyatta's "refuse to lose" attitude that got her home in front of Anabaa's Creation in this race. Frankly, probably the worst ride that Zenyatta ever received from Mike Smith in her career.
Did Zenyatta won in this race??
I just can't figure out who won
Lol thanks :) i just figured that out in slo mo o.o
XD lol
