I was just reading a DRF article on the Ky Cup Classic, and it mentioned that Premium Tap was given a 107 Beyer for the Woodward. That means that yet another set of BSF's has been downgraded after the fact. (I'm sure the figs I originally posted were correct at the time.)

The difference between a 111 Beyer and a 107 Beyer is significant. It represents about 2.5 lengths.

This has been happening more and more frequently. It seems as if they are in too much a hurry to get figs up after a big race. Either that or Beyer has some incompetent people making his figs and Beyer feels he has to step in and make corrections.
