Apparently this is the case. If not, why did Moss/Sheriffs run them in better races??? Seriously, if she is an "all time great" in their mind, why don't they give her the same OPPORTUNITY to win important races vs quality fields. That's the key distinction as most any owner/trainer on the west coast would love to win the Big Cap among others, but this "all timer" doesn't fit. We aren't even talking about the impossible task of crossing the Rockies twice in a season. Stay home and face the best. There's not even a Lava Man type out west to really be afraid of.

Another question....if she was 16-1-0, would she have been involved in that shameful field yesterday? I really don't know if what answer I would want to hear if that is answered honestly. If the answer is truly yes, then they show their colors and admit finding the softest spots available. If it's no, that's even worse.
