I don't know. That's hard to say. He ran huge that day. He could have run faster too. He was geared down. I don't know if she could have caught him. I'd have to analyze that race in much more detail. I don't know if there was any type of speed bias that day at Belmont. I honestly don't have a clue if she could have beaten him that day.
