 Is finishing third a primary objective? If you're saying some of the thirds Lezcano had in the first half could become exacta finishes in the 2nd half, I wouldn't disagree.

 Depends on the situation.  Don't these numbers tend to support the belief that, if Desormeaux can't win, he doesn't care where he finishes.
