She earned 300,000 of the 500,000 purse and paid $5.60 to win, $3.60 to place and $2.20 to show.

Still impressed with Ginger Punch, she was old and on the end of a great career when Zenyatta was lucky enough to race her. Ginger was a great horse.
Zenyatta made the 2007 Breeders Cup Distaff champion (AKA: "Ginger Punch") look like a $16,000 claimer.
