No.

She is only the sole horse to blame for this horse not winning a Grade 1 stakes race ...



I am a big fan of history ... and would have loved to see a horse who was 4th or worse in 6 races in a row - and 10 out of the last 11 win a Grade 1.

I have no problem that her connections "retired" her but kept her in full training. Strategic misdirection of the populace for a greater good. I'd have done the same. It seems to bother Gales though.
