By the way, those were the fractions from the Whitney, which were considerably faster than those set in the Preakness, and no one suggested that the 8YO Commentator had been unfairly treated.

That wouldnt be an excuse in my opinion. If she is rank and gets burned up in a speed duel and she loses... then she just loses no excuses.
I believe that she has the ability to sit off the pace and run her race. She's done that her past two races.. not far off the pace but she wasnt in the lead.
The example above is a square race IMO. She doesnt need everything to go in her favor to win, she's proven that too.
