The problem with Slew's Tizzy is that he has been VERY mediocre his entire career and then freaked on the odd polytrack surface at Keeneland. Add that to the way the race was run, as nobody gained an inch of ground with the proven mediocrity Starbase holding his position the whole way, and you have a race with a very questionable result.

The bottom line about the Lexington was that it was a terrible field running on a surface that is providing one unreliable result after another. While anything is possible, and much like Cinderella perhaps overnight Slew's Tizzy turned into a superstar, it is far more likely that sometime before his next race the clock will strike twelve.
