It is pretty easy to justify that she is best at a mile since that is where her trainer, who knows way more about her than any of us, thinks she is best.

No sir, your wrong there....the differnece between a mile and 1 1/4 miles is the TWO TURNS MORE THAN ANYTHING....Could Silver Train get a mile anywhere other than a place like Belmont, AQU, CD or ARL where it is a ONE TURN race?...I doubt it....But, could Silver Train get 1 1/4 miles if there were such thing as a one turn 10-furlong race, who knows...maybe...
What people don't undertstand about stamina is that most of the time it has to do with having the ability to negotiiate the second turn rather than the distance....your exapmle was dead horrible and I'm really shocked you used it...
