Posted on Thursday, March 11th, 2010
Beeders’ Cup Classic winner Zenyatta has arrived at Santa Anita Park for final preparations ahead of her return to horse racing in the $250,000 Santa Margarita Handicap at 1 1/8 miles where she has been assigned high weight of 127 pounds as the the 1-9 horse betting favorite.
Zenyatta arrived Thursday morning by van from her home base across town at Hollywood Park. Undefeated in 14 career races, the 6-year-old mare was scheduled to walk in Santa Anita‘s paddock between races later in the day.
Zenyatta was runner-up in the Horse of the Year balloting to filly Rachel Alexandra, who will make her season debut Saturday in the New Orleans Ladies’ at the Fair Grounds.
The two superstars are set to meet for the first time April 9 in the $5-million Apple Blossom Handicap in Arkansas’ Oaklawn Park.
