Well yes, "Perhaps". While no one could argue about the greatness of that marvelous filly, it is virtually impossible to truly compare athletes of different generations with one another and proclaim one the "Greatest of All Time."

While you could have wonderful arguments about whether Rogers Hornsby was a better shortstop than Derek Jeter, how could anyone say for certain? When comparing any athletes from different generations, there are so many different variables that it becomes more a matter of opinion than anything else.

I agree Joly. It becomes a matter of pure speculation even if you are talking about fillies that raced in the same time period. Unless, it is proven on the race track, then no one will ever know. I recently encountered some folks on face book that were arguing about Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra which seems to be a what part of the country you come from argument as to who would have won. I declined the discussion. Such arguments seem to devolve into something like little boys arguing about the greatest baseball players or whose Dad can whip whose.

After I had posted this
I had very little doubt
My comment indeed would
Make some smile + others pout 😾

In retrospect I will agree
Zenyatta + Rachel are great
Ruffian being my name sake
Increases why I appreciate ❣️

Besides RUFFIAN
ZENYATTA holds my heart ❣️
I have her book and statue
And watched Her every start

Until that fate full day
With history on the line
Blame stole my happiness
He broke this heart of mine 💔
