I don't think anybody ran well. I don't think Angara ran anything close to her best today. She beat Argentina by a nose. Argentina hasn't run a good race in this country. she is now 0 for 5 in this country. If a filly like Shining Energy(at her best) was in that race today, I think she would have won by open lengths.
So you think that 11 starts in one year is too much? How did Biancone run her into the ground? I felt that she just cycled in and out of form last year and picked up some nice paychecks when they counted.

She made a lot of money last year, where do you fault Biancone for his management of her?
