Those were three vastly overrated favorites. 8-5, 2-1 and 5-2 and had not demonstrated Derby affinity.

To my eye that was the first race of the day where a horse "freaked". I liked Sinister, but obviously never foresaw that. The issue being "what does that say of the figure"? Its obviously fast. Maybe freaky fast. But it is the only 2-turn race on the card. AGAIN

If this race is commentary upon the race favorites, its potentially commentary upon a couple of other highly regarded horses.

...Well, we still have the Lexington and Derby Trial to go. Throw in the Actual Entries, Post Positions and Pace Analysis and we've got ourselves a Derby to win.
