Bad horses don't run 10th beaten 8 lengths in good races.

CJ, do you believe the track slowed down throughout the day?

How plausible is McPeek's explanation that the track "thawed out" during the day?

I don't remember if I split the variant, but they ran basically the same exact time as the Golden Rod, which was won by a 31 to 1 shipper over a horse that hadn't run near as fast as the colts coming in. How much thawing took place between those two races?
