Not so sure I agree with this. Sylmar ran 1 more time then Beholder this year, so the 'in the barn' comment is a little off.
Look, Beholder won all the non turf G1 straight 3 year old races in California and Sylmar won the G1s on the East.
IMO, I think a BC Distaff win outweighs a KY Oaks win, thus my vote would go for Beholder
I also feel that if the track was bias towards closers yesterday, Beholder still would have won.
