Horse Racing Simulation created a fantasy race placing Zenyatta in a field with nine other top Thoroughbred Champions. The purpose of the simulation was to see how these famous race horses would fare at their peak against each other. The simulated race is a mile and three-sixteenth on a fast dirt track at Pimlico.

The reason Secretariat isn't in here is because the outcome wouldn't have been fair to the other horses, Secretariat would have won by 30+ lengths.

I can't believe you left Secretariat out of this simulation.

Ruffian still has speed records that have NEVER been beat or matched. She was an amazingly fast girl. She looked a lot like Ms. Zenyatta. Was just about as big too.
@AkoyErmin 13 years ago

I think and feel Ruffian should have won. I wonder what factors are used in their algorithms to determine how each virtual horse runs. Definitely should have been Ruffian.

Ruffian would never burn like that she ran a 1.25 mile course and still had energy to run in real life.

Ruffian is clearly the best -______-

You forgot Secretariat, Man O' War, Forego, Seattle Slew, Spectacular Bid, Dr. Fager, Kelso, and Plenty of other great horses.

Where is secretariat???
@katieoliver4849 9 years ago

Out of those horses Ruffian would have won. Yes Zenyatta is extremely fast on the last stretch but Ruffian would have pulled away so much that she would not have been able to catch up. I love both of them very much but in my opinion Ruffian was better. Ruffian got in the front and stayed in the front.

I'm sorry but Zenyatta would never have won in a real live race, Ruffian would have been finished before the other horses would have been ready to come down the finial streach.

I find it sad that they placed Ruffian 6th.
@RidingWithRuffian 11 years ago

Rachel last? I doubt it. And Ruffian just fade like that? No, never. I love Zenyatta along with the rest of these horses but I don't see her toying with them like did her normal competitors. If anything Ruffian would have still been up there.
