Silverbulletday was more exhusted when she won the race by 9 with her 115 Beyer ... thankfully her class carried her through.

No, it just means that Silverbulletday had run a few more races. If my memory is correct, SBD was coming off a far less taxing effort prior to the Alabama (in the 8.5F Monmouth Oaks against a few hopelessly outmatched rivals). Sky Beauty was coming off a far more taxing effort in the CCA Oaks, also run at 10F, which was far from her optimal trip.
