By the way, King, I forgot to mention that your remarks about workouts displaying readiness are right on the money. Just before the Derby Giacomo worked 6 F in 1:11 and change. Before the Belmont he worked 6 F at the same track in 1:14 and change. That tells you something. Even if you go back in history, Secretariat signaled he was off before the few races he lost by poor (slower than usual) works.
