miff, I used only TG data-no pace figs. Roses wired the rest of the field with Yessir being too slo on TG figs to be a factor. Although he did hang in there for longer than I expected. You don't have to be in front battling with a non-contender 46-1 shot to wire a field.
JJP, PD had his shot and got to the lead but I believe Roses battled back instead of PD hanging. Most folks will say PD hung which will hopefully lead to many yet again underrating Roses next out. Roses has now proven again just how much of a fighter he is. More of a factor in the win I believe was the weights and the ground saving trip. Perfect Drift will likely get a better TG fig that Roses because of the weight and the wider trip-we'll see.
