Arguably neither did Zenyatta, given what Einstein turned in BC day. Macho Again and Bullsbay were probably in their top form for the Woodward. At least part of the facing solid older males, whatever the gender of the 3yo, is dealing with the mental pressure. I'm not altogether sure RA didn't realize these were tough experienced horses and that she decided to handle them anyway. I hate implying Z wouldn't have beaten them in the same form that RA did, because both of them had the ability. RA fought past an obstacle that Z didn't the opportunity to match, not really Z's fault.
