I guarantee that I wouldn't have won either the East coast or West Coast version of the Lady's Secret this year.

So do you think 20 years from RA is going to have a greater legacy than Zenyatta because she did take on and win such demanding races for a filly?

I think I would take that bet if you wanted it.
