>>>>"But Whiting acknowledged, and both Tagg and Pletcher agreed, that the main track at Churchill in the weeks preceding the Derby often bears no resemblance to the surface on race day.
"They pack that track down until it's a brick road," Tagg said. "The Derby's run on a lightning-fast track. I'll probably get in trouble for saying that, but it's the truth."
"A lot of times the track is very different Friday and Saturday as opposed to what you train on," Pletcher said. "You're training on one surface, and you're running on a much tighter, faster surface."<<<<<
