Undefeated Zenyatta to have her own day
She will be saluted at her home track on Nov. 29. She is set to start her breeding career next year in Kentucky.
Zenyatta will parade between races on the program and fans in attendance will receive a DVD entitled "Zenyatta, A Living Legend," featuring all 14 of her races. A poster reading "Girl Power, Go Zenyatta" will be distributed.
Owners Jerry and Ann Moss will be on hand, along with trainer John Shirreffs and Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith.
Dominguez and Maragh triumph at Aqueduct
Ramon Dominguez and Rajiv Maragh each rode two winners Sunday in the New York Stallion Series at Aqueduct.
The five stakes were restricted to the sons and daughters of stallions standing in New York. The Great White Way and the Fifth Avenue, both for 2-year-olds, were worth $100,000; the other three carried $75,000 purses.
It was another big day for Dominguez, New York's leading jockey this year, with four winners on the afternoon. He scored with Uncle T Seven in the Thunder Rumble ($7.50 to win) and Mother Russia ($4) in the Staten Island.
Maragh booted home Ruffino ($2.70) in the Cormorant and Franny Freud ($6.20) in the Fifth Avenue.

2009 Breeders' Cup post times to be announced.
The 2009 Breeders’ Cup is just about upon us! Comprised of 14 races over 2 days, the Breeders’ Cup is America’s biggest days of thoroughbred action!
With horses arriving from all over the world and with total purses close to 26 million, there’s no wonder that the Breeders’ Cup has become the two biggest days in horse racing in North America.
This year’s races will showcase two of America’s most popular horses, the undefeated Zenyatta and the Belmont and Travers winner, Summer Bird.
Zenyatta’s connections have been quiet on whether or not she will run in the Ladies’ Classic on Nov. 7th. 6th or the Classic on Nov. 7th. In whichever race she runs, Zenyatta figures to be a short-priced favorite unless bettors decide to knock down the Travers winner, Summer Bird, to favoritism. A win in the Classic no doubt would give Summer Bird the right to claim the Horse of the Year title.
