Saying otherwise is simply ridiculous over analyzing.
great for a female.

Her record doesn't compare to Cigar for example, who had no option but to face males in every start of his 16 win streak.

Yeah, he was facing some real killers in those races.

Like I said many times in the past, if the overrated Cigar would've come along a couple years later (with that group in '97), he would've been extremely lucky to put together a TWO race win streak…
