"LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Perfection eluded Zenyatta in the Breeders' Cup Classic on Saturday night when horse racing's superstar lost for the first time after 19 consecutive wins.
Blame won by a head in a thrilling finish with the mare, who made her way through traffic from last place while the crowd of 72,739 urged her on down the stretch under the lights at Churchill Downs.
Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith blamed himself for the loss.
'It was my fault,' he said, sobbing. 'She should've won.'"
