Preachinatthebar was not on hold like Brother Derek was. He was allowed to run free. Preach made him go very wide in the 1st turn and fairly wide 2nd. First good race distance race Brother Derek has run in a long time. And he may have matched strides having an easier run, but he also got put away by a horse that will improve, which is the key.

If its west coast, I dont trust your assessment. You have the bias virus.
