What would I care about that? Seriously?
You have the rider, both right after the race on TV and in the press, saying he could tell he didn't have the same horse. You also have common sense, which I went into at great length about yesterday. The last thing in the world I'm concerned about is another handicappers opinion.
Doing the day now, the horse ran back to about the level of the Preakness and Belmont. WHICH MAKES PERFECT SENSE. You don't need to find some complicated reason to explain it. There's nothing to explain.
And by the way, the whole race fits well, both internally and with the other route. There's no reason to go through all this. It's simple. The horse did what he figured to, unfortunately (for me), KI went forward again.
One thing I will say, I was the only one who got the Derby right. Period. No way KI makes any sense at all otherwise.
