I do not know why Jolypha never regained her form either, but she was clearly a top level horse, and even Frankel, years later, called her one of the best three fillies he'd ever trained.

Obviously something went badly amiss with My Memoirs physically after the Jim Dandy flop. Notice the two year layoff.

However - he hardly brought promising form into the Belmont Stakes. If Bernardini beat him in similar workmanlike fashion - it would be held against him a lot more.
