I looked up his race record and it got me thinking who was faster him or my horse. So I did the follwoing quick calculations and was shocked to see that he was faster than my horse. Is that possible?

Furlongs Yards Feet TimeFeet / SecondMPH 550 1,650 31.0853.0936.208.5 1,870 5,610 108.851.5635.16

Granted the her one win was on a soft turf course in April of this year but she did earn a beyer of 64.

I was floored by this did I mess up the calculation?
With speed like that, Drake is sure to end up on King Glorious's Kentucky Derby watch list this year.
