If a jock knows and caters to how a horse likes to run, that could equal 7 length or more even. Lambert probably would have made the same premature moves he made in the Sunland Derby.

no question , but, when i watched the race the 1st time , it looked to me that he had a ton more in the tank and if the race kept going another 1/4 of a mile he would have won by more

maybe the mud moved him up as well that day? did he ever run on as muddy a track in any of his other races?
