Jerry,
Suggest you check out Pletcher and others comments about how Churchill will be SCRAPED, as always on derby day.
"They pack that track down until it's a brick road" from Tagg who trained a recent derby winner. So much for your theory that tracks are slower, at least in this case.
Pssst, maybe it's the surface causing lots of negatives on big race days and they ain't two seconds faster.
