The pace in Brooklyn was slower, but then they crawled home relative to Belmont. I am unsure how you could believe Mo'D/Nest were faster than the Brooklyn older males? It will be interesting to hear the methodology they used.

Agree. Tough to reconcile though pace must have played a role. The charts are available on Equibase.

I thought We The People never looked comfortable and seemed to be working hard on that lead. I would be interested in others with more knowledge on trips opinion.

Weird day to make speed figures when you have horses who were clearly geared down late and could have run faster times.
Matareya, Jack Christopher and Flightline were all basically eased in the last 1/16m or so. Same with Jackie's Warrior on Friday.

Interested to see what numbers Beyer and TimeFormUS assigned.
By my humble figures, Mo Donegal ran huge.

I am not knocking him, but that was a hungry field. Could he have just found his friends? I think CJ's disciplines will value Flightline performance numerically higher than Beyer? We will see; it's more for conversation than anything else.
