So if a bunch of Grade I winning turf horses had shown up for Rachel's Woodward on conventional dirt, and she had rolled by 10, you'd naturally admit that it was the stronger race?
Please. She ran on dirt, against dirt horses who were in solid form at the time.
Zenyatta won the year's biggest "dirt" race against a bunch of turf horses.
Of course it's disingenuous, but that's nothing new.
