Tough Tiz's Sis is also a Grade I winner on synthetic when she won the Lady's Secret at Santa Anita last year and has never finished worse than 2nd on synthetic. She only lost to Zenyatta by 1/2 length in the Vanity and Zenyatta has a better trip because Siver Z set really fast fractions (:46, 1:09) to set up Zenny's closing style. I think Joe Talamo will slow down Silver Z and set up Tough Tiz's Sis to break Zenyatta's undefeated record,

I agree this will be Zenyatta's toughest test yet. I think the fact that she's spotting 5 and 9 pounds to graded stakes winners and she will probably give ground into the turn for home. I believe the pace and race shape should be more legit this time however. Zenny was forced to go after that lone loose leader before she normally would. This is here third race in her form cycle and she should strut her stuff.
I have to say the Breeder Cup Distaff and Breeders Cup Sprint are shaping up dynamite races as long as everyone stays healthy

May they all come home safely!!!
Zenyatta is the best. Period.
She won with ease yesterday...I didn't even see Mikey hit her. She's already proven she's better then Ginger Punch by beating her at Oaklawn. No matter where the BC Distaff was run, Zenyatta would win.
