In which a freelance writer contemplates the publishing industry, horse racing and the human-animal relationship. Hey, I'm not the first to ponder the connections. "The profession of book writing makes horse racing seem like a solid, stable business." John Steinbeck

"Stamp This Day in Your Minds!"
Well Rachel may be back, but Zenyatta still rules with her incredible victory in the Vanity Handicap. Do yourself a favor and play that video-you will be watching racing history as Zenyatta wins her 17th consecutive race, a new record that surpasses both Citation and Cigar's 16 wins.
She does it in her trademark style, flying from last to first as she rounds the final turn, going six wide and carrying 129 pounds! Incredible!!
Her stablemate, Zardana, was third.
The standing room only crowd was not disappointed as they saw history being made. The charismatic Zenyatta is said to be aiming for the Breeder's Cup Classic in October and a possible showdown with Rachel.
We can only hope. . .
