Truly outstanding 4 and 5-year-olds almost always get the best of outstanding 3yos (see Aff vs. SS in '78 ... Aff vs. Bid in '79, off the top of my head).
God it must throw a wrench in your logic -- since I was as steadfastly on the Invasor over Bernardini wagon before they ever raced as I am on the Rachel over Zenyatta wagon now.

Weird how analysis works, eh?

To boot, like Anti said, that has nothing to do with anything, really, just saying your convenient "thank god!" doesn't really do much for lots of people.
