really?
i thought Delta was just that much the best, as she's pretty much shown throughout the year. With those fractions and the move made by My Miss down the lane i thought she had a serious chance to go by but Delta was just much the best. A blemish to Royal Delta isn't bad for your first loss

What does Royal Delta's clear dominance have to do with everything going perfectly for My Miss Aurelia?

that a lot of horses, male or female, would have been batteling for 2nd place money on that day vs. royal delta. Is your point that she had a perfect trip therefore had no excuse not to win? or that she had a perfect trip to get 2nd place?

She had a perfect trip regardless of where she finished, which means her performance looks better than it actually was, therefore she is likely to be overrated going forward. It's the same for $10K claimers as Grade 1 Stakes.
