Evening Attire has developed a style of running that the stewards and everyone who can read PPs are aware of. Would it make any difference if he broke with his field and then dropped 5 lengths out back in the first furlong? He'd rather break 5 lengths behind and take up his position without the hassle. EA knows what he is doing; put 115 or more dead weight on him and he would run his race just fine, but the stewards insist on somebody doing the steering.
