You're SURE the second place finisher wins next time?

I just watched the race again. No doubt the speed dual set it up nice for Flores, but he timed it fine and the horse did exactly what he was supposed to do. The 7 went wide and was going extremely well late, and should improve next time out.
I'm not annointing Les Grand Trois a Derby contender or anything, but what on earth do you want from a horse coming off an 8 month layoff? It was a nice, professional win. Simple as that.
