I wont aruge with you about the past 5 years, because the entire game has been down, and even you will agree with that. She is up there on accomplishments. Lets be realistic, at 9f even a filly like Flashing from last year is competitive with this gal. You cant have it both ways, when I was talking about the Grade 1 wins you totally bashed me, where is her fast race? Her 104 early on this year, thats it, and if a 104 is fast then that again is a product of the horses being slower.
BTW... I would take Proud Spell and Music Note over Blind Luck.
Considering what a herculean task shipping across the country is made out to be by some, this horse should be an all-time great already.

Blind Luck is pretty much impervious to pace, which is far more impressive on dirt than it is on synthetic. She takes her track with her, deep closers like her generally aren't going to run real big figures (and before you say anything, I never criticized Zenyatta for not running big figs) and she can run all day. Havre de Grace is no slouch and she buried the east coast's top filly. I don't care about Grade I/II/III designations, but Blind Luck has done nothing wrong and hasn't ducked anyone.
