Jimbo have a little different take and think that "Z" compares very favorably with Personal Ensign. But first Shirreffs is NOT taking the easy way here.
The schedule for "Z" would seem to mirror last year. In last weekend's Milady, "Z" defended her title while picking up four pounds to 126. The Vanity, June 27th would seem next and she would pick up two, if not three pounds; a certain bet against.
If she were to win, the Hirsch would be next and she would be looking to tote perhaps 130 around the compact Delmar oval. Before scale weights in the Lady's Secret and Breeders cup.
As far as Personal Ensign, as great as she was she only raced outside of NY twice; once in the Molly Pitcher where she toted 125 ( the only time she packed more than 123) paying $2.80 to win and of course her Breeders cup triumph at Churchill. Poly or not Zenyatta is fabulous and her upcoming schedule is daunting. bbb
