- Zenyatta extended her winning streak to 18 races with yet another dynamic late run in Saturday's Grade 1, $300,000 Clement Hirsch Stakes at Del Mar.
Much to the delight of an ontrack crowd of more than 30,000, Zenyatta ($2.20) caught pacesetter Rinterval in the final furlong and won by a hard-fought neck, finishing 1 1/16 miles in 1:45.03. Princess Taylor finished third, followed by Spring Style, Dance to My Tune, and Made for Magic in the field of six.
Rinterval set a slow pace of 25.41 and 50.61 seconds for the first half-mile, with Zenyatta in fifth, racing about 7 1/2 lengths behind the pace. Jockey Mike Smith began moving Zenyatta closer to the leaders on the backstretch, and the 6-year-old mare made a sweeping move while four wide to reach contention in early stretch.

Lookin At Lucky, Blame, Quality Road. All outstanding colts, no doubt about it. That said. None of these fellows, or Rachel Alexandra, is going to stop Zenyatta from winning back to back Classics and retiring undefeated. Likely 20 for 20 lifetime. She handle's dirt just fine. As witnessed by two G1 win's at Oaklawn. She just has gears and more gears to draw upon. It's a God given talent. No matter how fast any of these open up in front of her. Zenyatta will find a gear to run them down and win.
Zenyatta THE MAGNIFICENT!
Horse of the Year 2012.
is she still alive
