Here's a copy of what I posted....................................65 Beyer
Wow. That's a shock. Visually it looked alot better than that. BTW kids don't be fooled by how the rider either drives or doesn't. I've learned over the years to TRUST THE NUMBER. I've seen a thousand races where the jock was motionless but the horse especially a young one was doing his best. The horses don't have the reasoning in their minds to gear it down. They just run. Rosario asked him to roll pretty good going to the quarter pole. From there in regardless of what he did I expect Empire Way was pretty much doing close to his best. The numbers tend to be the closest things to fact. Adjusting off those with something tough to quantify usually is not nearly as reliable. TRUST THE NUMBERS. Will be very interesting to see what Thoro-graph and Ragozin give him.

Nicely done. At first, it was Greek to me. But then I looked closer and saw that mischief was afoot. This speech is littered with sarcasm and rhetoric. You don't fool me any longer. You're just paying lip service to the speed figure dudes here. Clearly you were trying to incite a Riot.
Or a Pedigree Ann.
