As was pointed out, no she wasn't beating up on them all year. She beat them once and ran a couple of other decent races against them but make no mistake about it.....if Precisionist or Turkoman win the Classic, they win HOY. Lady's Secret won it because Skywalker won the Classic.

I think winning the Whitney by 5 is beating up the the boys.

Apparently, you forgot that the statement you made was beating up on them ALL YEAR. Beating up on them in one race is not beating up on them all year. At least I don't think so. I'm no expert though so I could be wrong.

Ok. If beating up on them all year is winning one race and losing the rest, I stand corrected. And I'd like to officially change my selection for 3yo champion to Da Tara since, according to this way of thinking, he beat up on the 3yo division all year.

I agree Da Tara for 3yo champ and HOY!!! Cuz he went 10 for 15 this year and won 8 grade 1s just like the Iron Lady!

Lets just go back to your original post where you lumped Lady's Secret in with Azeri who never stepped out of her division. Just calling the comparison to her and the latter 2 ludicris. She actually stepped out of her division and showed up every time.
All Zenyatta had to do was run third in the classic and shes HOY.
