YOU speculated that he would have won anywhere. I am merely saying that we will never know and when the difference is that small, things obviously could have gone differently. Maybe Blame wins by more on another track. Maybe he loses. I just don't see the win as being emphatic enough to say that "blame wins on any track in america". If you do, that is your perogative.

This whole conversation started with people using the track as an excuse for why Blame beat her. To me, that's absurd considering how well she ran and how he still wouldn't let her go by.

I don't disagree with you. She had every chance to go by and couldn't. Blame deserves all the credit and blaming the track is not giving enough credit to the winner. The winner dug in and earned the title.
