But because he didn't, the door is opened for her to win it. This is exactly how Lady's Secret won.

But Lady's Secret was Dominating her Division and beating the older males on the dirt. She won one of the most prestigious races for older males and placed in 3 others. She won it because she did both things not only because no males stepped up. Azeri may have won it that way but not Lady.
