exactly.
114 isn't necessarily slow for some of the times they have run last few delaware meets. have to see a few more turf races there. remember he seemed to go wide 1st turn with the fairly heavy short run-up bias as well. (hard to get a great view on xpressbet) can't just say 24 48 112 and assume that fits for today's turf course |

They had been rained off the turf yesterday. Perhaps KG thought that the final time of 1:46 and change was for 9 furlongs - the race was 8.5 furlongs ... thus 49 is a very solid pace in relation to that final time.

Admittedly, I don't know much about anything in regards to what's normal for Delaware so I shouldn't have made that comment. I still didn't think he was looking like he had much coming down the lane. Sure, he wasn't asked for anything at all and there was no reason to be giving much but it just looked like a horse that didn't have much left and luckily didn't have anything behind him. Who knows? This might turn out to be the first time I've ever been wrong about a horse.
