Thumbs down

So, the 15mph headwind for an extra 1.5 furlongs, contributed to a final time 0.81 seconds slower, based on that relationship.

Beyer only baked in 3.5 lengths for it. Needed to bake in closer to 4.75 lengths.

What does it say about the sheet figures? They're supposed to account for wind? They both have Untapable much faster.

The Derby has had a turf race carded before it for decades. The post times have been ridiculously long between races for decades. I guess this was finally, a year where the track maintenance crew did something different, and out of the norm?
