Hopefully Lansdon will see this tonight and give his perspective, but that's the way I saw it this winter/spring...

yep, that race was SERIOUSLY fast and the conditions are what smoked him, gutted him......For him to come back and run the race he did in the FOY is amazing if you ask me, even with the bootleg ride that the jock put on that day, I think it was Prado......
