no, it's not isolated to fillies. some colts and fillies might learn to lose, but to suggest that if rags was to run and lose in the belmont she would never be the same is ridiculous. or that it would somehow ruin her--she can run 12f, but she can't if the colts are in there?? where is the logic in that?
