Plenty of horses have won the BC Classic and then lost the race the following year both before and after Zenyatta.
Plenty of horses have won the Apple Blossom, Milady, Lady's Secret, Clement Hirsch, and Vanity multiple times.
That said, I don't think many horses have run in the same 4 races for 3 straight years...so there' s that.
