if that were the case, then you can use the 11f running of this race as an excuse for WAW(it would be totally bogus, but its the same argument).
besides, The Board ran just fine at 10f on numerous occassions.
I dont buy the post position thing.
maybe if its a 8f turf race at Belmont where they basically start the race on a turn I would see your point.
but we are talking a 10f race on the inner turf course.

Anything outside the 8-hole on the inner turf at BEL is usually death. I don't see how you can possibly say drawing 13 isn't a substantial disadvantage. And the difference is we know Ouija Board is better the further they go. Did we know that about Wait a While? So that's her excuse, now? That she tops out at ten furlongs? I think she just ran into much better horses.
