 It would have been the same.
Beyer typically splits his sprints and routes. Race #1 was a sealed track -- but the other 3 routes including the Derby all had the same variant.
Even if he didn't -- Groupie Doll is just one horse on a card with 10 dirt races -- she's not going to impact anything much by herself.
