I was right that they were trying to hide Squires Wingman's speed. They were working him a mile in 1:43. In the race today he got the lead in :21 2/5. He ran huge buth the favorite was just too good. I was worried that the favorite might be too good, but he was a long-striding who looked like he may want to run a little longer and he was 3-5. I thought it was worth trying to beat him.
