Hockey, the simple answer is because she's not toying with anyone.

She was all out in her last two races and clearly laying her body down and straining. The whip was out both times.

It's hard to win by big margins in synthetic races - and even harded when the pacesetters go slow and have some finish left in them.

On dirt - she blew by Taptam and Be Fair because both horses were running early - and you have to run harder throughout on dirt. They are more demanding races - and will be won by margins.

Basically - the notion that she's measuring these horses and could have won by larger margins is competely idiotic.
