It's called 'taking the offensive'.
Is her race Saturday good enough to win the Whitney?

Was her race in the Hirsch last year good enough to win the BC Classic? No, but it didn't stop her from winning it.

It did not and that cannot be taken away from her. I was just looking for a comparison, the original quote from TFM mentioned QR falling apart, hence my question. Could be rephrased simply as; does she win the Whitney on Saturday?

There's really no way to know. Her race was obviously not nearly as good as Blame's race. But that doesn't necessarily mean anything with her. I think she has shown that she usually runs to her competition. The times of her races and her margin of victory don't really tell you much.
