Look at her winners:
Ahvee's Destiny - Got loose in a turf sprint and was a stakes winner over the Mellon turf before. (7/2)
Awakino Cat - Exited two decent turf sprints at Monmouth and benefited from a perfect trip. (9-1)
Gentle Ride - Got loose in a very weak maiden claimer dropping from MSW races. (2-1)
Good Prospect - Received a perfect trip coming off a win against comparable company. (7-1)
Fort McCoy - Exited a rough trip 5th at Belmont and had things go his way. (7-1)
Tahoe Warrior - Coming back on short rest off a poor effort sprinting he also got a perfect trip going long and benefited when the favorite received an uncharacteristically bad ride from Ramon Dominguez. (10-1)
Karakorum Legend - Capitalized on a lone E trip against a suspect field as the chalk. (5/2)
Willsboro Point - Received a cushy pace-setting trip against a bad field (5/2).
Mother Russia - Another wire-to-wire winner against a horrible field (2-1).
The common thread among these winners is that they were all relatively short prices and most benefited from great trips pace-wise. I really think she's getting the most out of her horses right now and things will definitely even out soon.
She had 11 winners at Saratoga in 2007 including a 6-10 run during closing week, so it's not like this is unprecedented.
