No, there was no speed bias on Jim Dandy day in my opinion.

If there was, it would only further help Fly Down.. but I don't believe there was.

The only wire-to-wire winner on dirt that day was a longshot - but he won his only other dirt start despite getting involved in an absolutely destructive no holds barred speed duel with a horse who was eased after five furlongs and came right back to run three markedly improved races.

Looking at the other races - a few of them I bet that day - I didn't see anything resembling a speed bias.
