The Tom Fool was a four horse field.

The Woodward? St. Liam, a legitimate top class horse, beat the third horse by 9. While you could make an argument for this race being fractured, Bowmans Band figured to lose by 9 to St. Liam.

As for the BCC, I can't really say. PleasantlyPerfect could run on his best day, but his two previous races were a loss against Choctaw Nation and a hard fought win over the bestest horse of the decade, Perfect Drift.
