Yeah, I wasnt sure whether DRF or BRIS does them because I know there are at least two different charts made so maybe the notes are shared or maybe they have different.

I actually did ask Stewart Elliot about the race months after the hoopla died. I was concerned about the way Smarty took the turn but he said that he usually was somewhat wide but it did concern about the horse bearing out in the lane. Which is kinda why I got confused about how wide Smarty was or what was it exactly. Elliot said the horse really didnt slow down till right at the end, but like the other guy said they can bear out for lots of reasons.

If you get a chance to ask Elliot or Servis they will likely tell you that this horse was never the same after Belmont. Elliot was approachable back then but maybe they get jaded after people ask them the same stuff..
