I'm not an expert in training but I think the trainer can have a horse at a different fitness level for different races depending on the goals. So even if the horse is running all out he might not run as well as he would running all out with the proper fitness level which he should have on Derby Day. He also did hold on to beat AGS and that horse may very likely be the second best horse to step in the gate on Derby Day.
