It was certainly a lot closer between them than most final time figures would indicate. I don't try to formulize the pace figure with the final time the way some handicappers do because I learned from making them that there are way too many inaccuracies in the pace figures that can't be solved.
Plus, I don't think there's a one size fits all formula for how pace impacts final time.
The key is that the public doesn't understand it or build it into the odds.
No matter how you slice there was enough information to know that CA deserved to be the clear cut second choice.
High Fly was impressive in defeat. With a moderate trip he wins.
