Watching the replay - DeCarlo made the winning move inside of 110 yards. He did not expend a large amount of energy on that horse which saved sometihng for the lane. DeCarlo has been solid since Belmont in my view.
The other variable is that these five and six horse events at nine furlongs have been very tight packs behind typically slow opening half miles (49+ consistently). Around the turn, the entire field was abreast and within two lengths front-to-back. In these situations, the difference has been running a solid final quarter mile rather than showing pace for the entire race. Based on the stats that I have, the favorites in these short fields going two turns have been getting slaughtered this meet.
