I agree in general.

Nacho Friend obviously ran well, and clearly better than the second horse, but Awesome Act beat him by enough that it will be a hard gap to reasonably expect him to close. Plus, I find it hard to believe longer distances won't favor the winner...at least over Nacho Friend.

Nacho Friend strikes me as the kind of horse that will be running in too many races that he can't win.
