Exactly. The streak is meaningless to me if she's just beating the same horses at the same tracks over and over. Hell, I'd prefer a horse like Perfect Drift to her. He lost a lot, but he danced every dance and consistently ran well and that means more to me than some stupid streak against soft competition.
