Perspective is never a bad thing.

Yes perspective is not a bad thing and as you like to say who has she beaten?
She has taken on all comers at various distances and trounced them all over a number of years. I didn't say she was the greatest of all times(everyone has their own perspective) but surely ranks up there.
She is so feared that Godolphin have announce that they have decided to actively seek a path to avoid her with their $4 million earner Hartnell. Hartnell is a dual Group 1 winner, his latest turf triumph producing the three and a quarter-length win over subsequent Caulfield Cup champion Jameka in the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (2000m) at Flemington last October.

He backed-up from that to finish runner-up behind Winx in the $3 million Cox Plate (2040m), the mighty mare taking out Australasia’s weight-for-age championship by a historical eight length winning margin.

Hartnell also took on Winx in the 2015 Cox Plate finishing fifth.
After his Cox Plate second last spring, the gelding ran an eye-catching third to round out the 2016 Melbourne Cup trifecta behind Almandin (1st) and Heartbreak City (2nd).
This is the stables plan" I think if we can steer him towards races where he’s not chasing home a ghost then he’ll be in with a chance.”
