I thought Zenyatta was going right by, but Blame dug in and wouldn't allow it. What a great race! Too bad she lost.
In any other year, Blame gets HOY, but I think they give it to Zenyatta. How can you win 19 of 20 and NOT get HOY at least once? That's why I think she'll get it. If Z got it last year, then Blame would get it this year. Like it or not, Z should get this as a "make up" call - kind of like the NBA. If she does, it's too bad for Blame, as he had a great season, but Z had a great career. Tough call here, so we'll see.
