She has none of the accelleration she used to have. It wasn't the 10f that got her beat. It's that she's taken a couple of steps back. If this race had been 9f, she might have won it but it wouldn't have been anything like what we saw from her last year. Running like this, she wouldn't win the Distaff. She's a shadow of her former self. They went 1:12.02 and 1:37.54 That's hardly suicidal. Even going that slow, she had nothing left. The final was 2:04.49 so it took her over 27 seconds for her final quarter. They actually made Afleet Express look like he was flying.
