Starofdavid got a beyer of 63 and finished 3rd by five in the Summer Stakes where he got a beyer of 83. so the 1st and 2nd place beyers improved 14 points from their last start and 3rd places beyer improved 20 points from his last start. If a bettor bet any horse in the bc 2yo turf cuz of those inflated beyers alone - they prob deserved to lose. hard to blame the guy making em for correcting a probable mistake. even after the fact. just my imo.
