R9: 92, 89 (I project this one as about a 98, so the track would be 9 slow)
R10: 128, 120 (I project this one as about 105, so suddenly the track is 15 fast?)
R12: 128, 123 (project at 110, so 13 fast)

Nice job by the super.
I think it's fair to give Big Brown some improvement, so call it 107, and that gives Smooth Air a very plausible high 90's (96-98). Don't know what to think of that last race of the day. Seems unbelievably fast. Very difficult to make figures, like old school GP.

FP he's not peddling shiat, he's dead on accurate here.

I love it when you call horses crows, I laugh every time You're right though, someone had to run 3rd, and he probably ran about the same as he did in Peru here, a mid 80's Beyer.
