At first glance, the pace seems like it was on the quick side. That might account for the slower last part. It wasn't extremely fast, but probably a little faster than average. I doubt the race comes back very fast regardless. Most of these horses were mediocre and the top two didn't bury them. Plus they only ran 4/5 faster than the 3yos -who weren't an especially fast group to begin with. My guess is that the race was a little quicker that the top two have been running recently, but slower than the par for the designation.
