The only thing wrong with the post was the problem comming out of the gate. With the lack of early pace, the wide post could and was overcome. EC had perfect posotion except noone understood the 1:15 and noone showed THE TIN MAN any respect. He was actually bet down by the public but the compition showed no respect.
