Totally different run race as NTamm was saying.
Got loose on an uncontested lead without needing to be asked for much going 4.5f and 5f twice in the Texas Bred.
Going 6f against a bunch of recent open debut winners - was all out and couldn't make the lead through vicious fractions in relation to final time - quits, like they often do.
Happens all over. You'll see a precocious horse with no future at all get loose going short - and beat several future very classy stakes horses. Next time, they'll run into a bunch of other similar precocious horses - who also have no future - and also may have just pissed on eventual nice horses - and they'll get fried if they can't outrun the other speed or stalk and go.
