I wasn't blown away by his effort like I was in the Travers. he had to get after him on the turn to catch the runnerup, and his final time was ordinary. I can't grasp the Beyer fig at all, think its ludicrous. Henny went 8 flat for 6f so the track was obviously ok in speed. 2:01 for a mile and a quarter which is only a turn and a half instead of two turns on a track where the track record is 1:58:1 is not that great.
I dunno, maybe he is beatable after all.
