I already discussed the Acorn. In the Azeri she dictated the pace ( the comment in the chart is " soft duel " ) in a small field where the first two finishers ran around the track together....and still barely beat a very weak third finisher. In the BC she had the dreamiest of trips, never leaving a souped up rail, in a race where the first TWO favorites failed to finish.
Sculpting opinions of performances based on one's personal feelings about horses is the road to losing. Maybe you don't bet, which is fine, but if you form opinions such as the ones you expressed, and bet, you are certain to lose.

I'm not sure that 7 for 11, multiple graded stakes wins, never out of the money would classify as sculpting anything on feelings....so with that said...
I'm not going to debate her potential or pp's anymore because we are obviously on different planets. While it's fun to compare horses and running styles and what if's, the fact is unless the horses being compared are running in the same race, then it's nothing but hypotheticals....
