Too true.
Neither Rinterval nor Anabaa's Creation ever won another allowance race after facing Zenyatta.
And Briecat, Taptam, and Dance To My Tune had to struggle to reach the heights they had previously achieved in backwater listed stakes.
And let's not forget the racetracks; when a single horse puts to shame the best that Retama Park, Assiniboia Downs, and Fairplex have to offer, those epicenters of horseflesh suffer en masse.
It's a wonder those places are still open for simulcasting...
