Music Note was not a slow filly as a 3 year old.

I disagree... Her best race, she never threatened.
And, if I recall correctly she got a dream rail run in that race.

What race are you talking about? In any case, she was a very good 3 year old filly IMO.

BC against Zenyatta. Her Alabama was thrilling and all, but not really great. I guess with all the slow horses we have now a days, she clearly looks better then she is, but I actually think her 4 yr old campaign helped validate her.

Not exactly slow, per se, but she was hardly very fast for a horse considered one of the two leaders in her division.

You and Indian Charlie have made the point to me that I was trying to make here, compared to even 10 years ago almost everyone is slow in todays racing.
