Supposedly this was an easy spot, but it was her first race of the year. I'm sure they don't want to crank her up now when they have a few ambitious goals coming up.
IMO every race doesn't have to be some supreme test against the best available competition in the world. Virtually all the great ones have records littered with easy races in between some really tough ones.
Everyone in the world has known where she is and what races she was going to run in. If someone thinks they have a better horse, they know where to find her. If they get really aggressive and ship this year, what more can you ask?
