I said her 2009 and 2010 'regular season,' i.e. non-BC, campaigns were against mid-level competition. Let's see if your rejoinder is on point.
How many G1 winners and champions did Zenyatta beat in non-BC competition over the past two years (that would be 2009 and 2010). Answer: 1 G1 winner and 0 champions.
So, your reply was non-responsive. We've established that she is not undefeatable. Was the length of her win streak inflated by the softness of her competition in 9 of the 11 races she's run over the past two years? We'll never know for sure, but it's a legitmate question and one that must bear on her place in the pantheon of top horses.
