I don't buy it. Southern CAL is just about the only place where stretchouts outfinish cutbacks. You see it all the time where sprinters stretching out outfinish routers cutting back in distance. I thought that the chalk and the 10, both cutting back from 7F, would have a small advantage here --- especially since both were on the pace types. As it turned out, the 10 chased and collapsed and the 9 wasn't any threat, while the winner stretched out from 5.5F.

Who would you want, for example, for the 1st time, in a 200 meter race: a 100 meter runner or a 400 meter runner?
