There are a lot of factors that could come into play when a horse wins or loses by a head. We are not talking about open daylight here Joey. Maybe Blame hits a track that he doesn't like so much (he didnt seem to love belmont by the way) for the FIRST TIME, could that have made the difference of a head?
I get it, speculation is cool when it provides an excuse for Zenyatta. The idea that Blame had the jump on her because of the racetrack should be an accepted fact. But the fact that she still looked as if she'd blow by him and he looked her in the eye and never let her past can't be extrapolated to other racetracks by me.
