Sandreadis,
I was referring to Best Pal in the Derby. I think he had the best figure. Hansel was 7th if memory serves. Good point about Hansel being sore after Turfway race.
I recall standing next to Dr. Hill watching Hansel gallop out after (I think) the Belmont. I mentioned that Hansel seemed to be favoring his right front. Doc quipped "you don't bet these things do you?" Well, if memory serves, Hansel broke down in the Travers. That was 1991. I think Corporate Report won the Travers, trained by Lukas.
