Greatest horse of all time, is a moot point, she is not. (I should have typed mute)

If that is what you
meant to say....okay.
I was confused because what you actually
did say was: "she will get more respect out of finishing second than winning the race."
That obviously makes no sense. She quite clearly would get even more respect if she had gotten past Blame in those final strides than she gets by failing to do so.
