You can say that Cal Nation was "flattered" because the horse who narrowly beat him ran very well yesterday - however, the horse who was 3rd in that race was badly outrun next time out.

I do put emphasis on that kind of stuff in certain situations - but not as much in regard to just one other performance from a lightly raced 3yo.
