If SS ran the better race than AGS, he would've won by more than 1 inch. When two horses finish an inch apart, one closing on a fast pace while saving every inch of ground while the other is closer to the fast pace and goes wide on the second turn, I don't think its hard to see why most feel AGS ran the superior race.
