Horses don't "do what is necessary to win"
She's one unlucky nose bob from losing to Anabaa's Creations.
Almost every horse gets beat at one time or another.
Her record is a product of how good she is versus how carefully she's been managed and how good her opposition has been.
She's very good - her trainer has done a masterful job of putting her in the easiest spots and having her most cranked up for her home court Breeders Cup Races - and other than about 3 or 4 races her competition has been a total joke.

For a public handicapper, you don't display alot of flexibilty. You are locked into the numbers discussion and it doesn't allow you any room for the usage of cognative or intuitive skills when it applies to handicapping or perhaps this only applies for Zenyatta. If what you say is true, she is the luckiest, best spotted horse we have ever seen to squeak out 16 races without a loss. I know it's black and white because that is what the numbers tell you, she's just one lucky SOB to get up everytime.
