I just watched the replay in super slow-mo and I don't see any trailers attatched to Fabulous Strike so I don't think he pulled Cougar Cat along. I'll watch again though to be sure.

Theory is it happens in Harness (not in thoroughbred), but perhaps Cougar Cat just ran the race of his life to be 2nd. Gaff ran about his race with no excuses and was beaten 7 lengths, which would be a 96 Beyer if you go with my number of a 113. If the number is adjusted down because Cougar Cat ran 3-4 points above his lifetime best it's a bad number.
