She was just awesome. It came up in the "Trivia" thread before the BC when trying to figure out which gals had 10 graded stakes wins this decade. She only had nine, but missed by a neck, a head, a nose, 3/4 of a length, a length, and was DQ'd from another one -- and she won the American Oaks when it wasn't graded.
That's almost 15 or 16 depending on how you look at it.
She gets some of her due, but I think she was underrated.
Some horses are really talented, but the best word I can find for them is "cool." Megahertz was plain old just a cool horse. The kind that sort of makes you shake your head and smile when they run.
