Coolmore never has to prove anything with this or any filly. They are not commercial breeders. Futile and foolish argument.

Not to prove it to us. To prove it for themselves. At it's most basic level, racing is still about "my horse is faster than your horse." I'd like to try and see what if it's my horse instead of wondering what if. People remember horses like Winning Colors and Lady's Secret and Genuine Risk and the first thing u think of is them beating the boys. Think Althea and u think Arkansas Derby. Of course, they don't have to prove anything. But wouldn't u want to?
