The magnificent Zenyatta remained undefeated
The magnificent Zenyatta remained undefeated with her ninth consecutive win in the $2 million Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic (gr. I), unwinding her patented late charge on the far turn and sweeping past the leaders in the homestretch for a 1 1/2-length victory at Santa Anita Oct. 24.
Zenyatta, the 4-year-old daughter of Street Cry — Vertigineux, by Kris S., wrapped up the older female handicap division with the victory and staked a strong claim for Horse of the Year.
John Shirreffs trains the strapping dark bay filly for Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Moss. Moss, co-founder of A&M Records, named Zenyatta for a recording by the super-group The Police.
The 1-2 choice in the field of eight was ridden to her fourth lifetime grade I victory by MikeSmith. The jockey won the Bessemer Trust Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies (gr. I) with Stardom Bound earlier on the program.
"Today, she was just showing off," Smith said. "Used to be, she'd get nervous and sweaty when the people were hollering at her. Today, she just started dancing when they did that. She's just figured it out.
"I was just in awe of her," he added. "I do my job. I get out of her way and let her do her thing."
