Remember Tears I cry ? Fluked a Group 1, then didn't win for almost 20 years, then strung together 3 wins in a row ?? Now I would think is an extreme case, not the norm, but you'd still get a result because when it put together a few wins it was down very much in class and I doubt there would have been any other Group horses in those races.

Riches await ..... YeeeeeHaaaaa
