It's hard to "roll" a field when you go that extremely slow early - especially on a synthetic surface. Even on dirt it isn't easy.
Look at Quality Road's comeback race this year in the Hal's Hope. He rated so kindly on the lead through a 25.15 first quarter (Maiden fillies going the same distance on dirt that day went a 24.41 first quarter and 3 of them were within a neck of each other through that 1st quarter)
The result was Quality Road beating bums like You and I Forever and Congressional Page by less than 3 lengths in the Hal's Hope - and running a mere 103 Beyer figure.
