I wont aruge with you about the past 5 years, because the entire game has been down, and even you will agree with that. She is up there on accomplishments. Lets be realistic, at 9f even a filly like Flashing from last year is competitive with this gal. You cant have it both ways, when I was talking about the Grade 1 wins you totally bashed me, where is her fast race? Her 104 early on this year, thats it, and if a 104 is fast then that again is a product of the horses being slower.
BTW... I would take Proud Spell and Music Note over Blind Luck.
I don't think it's necessarily about "fast" but more that she can continue to win against negative setups. The Ky and Del Oaks were great examples of that and one thing she has been able to do that a horse like Proud Spell couldn't, is show up every time. I won't hold the synthetic losses against her because it was a good bit of rider error in both but the Hol Oaks pace was just too slow for her to overcome.

I think Blind Luck would destroy Flashing at 9fs.
