I agree with everyone regarding Gio Ponti, there are not too many horses that can overcome that type of trip and still win rather comfortably, the only blemish if one were to be picky is the quality of horses he beat. The second and third place finishers have a penchant of not winning races recently excluding the Italian Derby. No disrespect, but that isn't a key race from my perspective.
