What you described above is more representative of what happened 2 races back in Florida, where BD sat behind dueling leaders in a FAST early split.

False. That's not what I said. I said the pace would be slow because Coa would decide not to duel with MP. That's what happened.

The only two horses with real six-furlong speed are him and Big Drama, and I think Coa knows if he knocks heads with Bridgmohan early, he'll be toast. His only chance is to sit a length off and try to outfinish him. I don't think it'll happen.
