It is total folly on your part to keep looking for the big poly fiasco.
I'm fairly certain he's talking about horses who trained over the Churchill surface before running the Derby. Obviously, he didn't word it correctly.

Horses that had their final work over the CD surface include Street Sense, Hard Spun, Curlin, Imawildandcrazyguy, Sedgefield, Sam P., Zanjero, Dominican, Storm in May, Teuflesberg and Bwana Bull. (I may be missing a few, but those are the ones I remember.)

It seems that having a final work over the surface assisted the first 5 finishers unless it's coincidental.
