I came away with a different impression of that race than you did.
I've never been a believer that trailing the field through soft fractions and having to come around was an advantage.
I didn't think it was a conclusive win at all for PS - and certainly MN's win in their prior meeting was very inconclusive because of real bad trips... where I thought the Alabama was just a race where the bum Little Belle had the dreamiest of trips and PS had a slight tactical advantage on MN.
