Before the race, I thought 2nd place finisher Baby Yoda would circle back to a 3-ish. And the eventual third-place finisher, Stiletto Boy, having paired 2’s, would also run a 3-ish, backing up slightly. Dr. Schivel tubed, so he can’t be used for interpolation purposes.
After the race, my immediate thought was Flightline paired his -5. It was visually impressive. But since Flightline won by 12 lengths (or 6 ThoroGraph points?), then I’d guess Flightline ran a -3-ish. A 3.5?
If you think Flightline went forward (gulp) here, that means that Mott’s horse zoomed forward big time to a negative number. And to me, that's hard to believe. He likely went forward somewhat, but not too much. To me, the key is that the third place finisher ran a 3.5 or thereabouts.
Looking forward to seeing how Jerry rates it.
