Some of you have commented that the males beaten by RA have basically been a bunch of chumps. But what about Ruffian's competition? Looking at the top two behind her in her races, I see a Kentucky Oaks winner, a Monmouth Oaks winner, and some horses with 2yo accomplishments. Certainly, some of the fillies who finished behind Ruffian had to have gone on to win most of the remaining major 3yo filly stakes in 1975 as well as some Grade 1 stakes in later years.
