I'd certainly never try and argue that she was 9 lengths better than an average winner. Maybe 9 lengths better than the average runner (a conservative OR of 100, say?) Even so, this would put her well into the 120s. I've only got her on 117 for the Guineas.

Where did Starscope finish the other day? No matter how you look at it, Homecoming Queen should have been in front of her the other day, shouldn't she? Even if the Guineas was a weird race, would a weird race account for a turnaround of something like 30 lengths? It's not as if it were three-mile chases on soft at Uttoxeter compared with firm at Kempton.
