Oh, It was a bit coincidental that everything breaking from post #1 was running out of their skin...but a horse like Thro's Echo left the rail and made a decisive wide move.
I still labeled that track as "inside path seemed preferred" ... which is my way of saying that maybe the rail was better, but let subsuquent results be your guide and make a final judgement after enough horses have run back.
I had no problem with anyone thinking that was a fair track - and no problem with anyone thinking it was a live rail - I took a middling position on that one at the time.... but obviously it was made to be such a big thing because of how every horse breaking from post 1 seemed to signficantly outrun their odds ... 4 of the 5 in winning races.
