I thought that even though she was blocked for about a half of the stretch run, she was inside the entire race and Mott's horse (Stormy, whatever), wider entering and in trouble upon entering, finished as well as, if not better than she did. Wouldn't surprise me if she won, but the race fell apart late.
However, I'm glad you asked, cause I was looking at that race last night and was blown away by the effort of the winner: 6 wide or so 1st turn, widest, without cover on the backstretch, widest 2nd turn, and didn't change leads in lane while drifting in, and still blew away the field. She ran a worse version of Bit Of Whimsey's trip in the BEL stake (before she blew away the field at KEE) and still won.
