He ran 108, which is still very good, but it still makes Dini's race a bounce or a surface he didnt favor. Anyone who has any eye for a horses locomotion can tell the horse was struggling getting over the ground going down the backside. Whether he took some kickback, or just wasnt handling the ground, something was wrong. He was facing better horses, but had he been the same Dini that ran 4 weeks prior.... he wins. Invasor ran huge, and hes the real deal, so is Dini. On both of their best days there is no telling who wins, Im sure nobody would mind owning, or racing either in their colors.

wait a minute...so not only is beyer off, this one time all year (of course none of those other, high beyers when bernardini won are wrong, just this one) but mcglaughlin is a liar as well? conspiracy theories galore.
