Year of the Woman


Above is Zenyatta, the undefeated Queen of the West Coast, who is entered in Saturday's Breeder's Cup Classic against the boys.


Above is Rachel Alexandra who is sitting out this year's Breeder's Cup having already beaten the boys.

At stake is the title of Horse of the Year. Conventional wisdom seems to indicate that if Zenyatta puts away the field that includes Kentucky Derby winner, Mine That Bird, her title is a lock. But if she doesn't, would the honors go to Rachel?

Tune in and find out. Post time for the Classic is approximately 6:45 on Saturday on ABC. Check your local listings and fasten your seal belt.

It should be quite a ride.
