hypothetical derby

[todko]

Barbaro by 6 or so lengths again.

Comes home in the second fastest final quarter (only Secretariat was faster). 12th fastest Derby on record. Cruises behind very solid fractions of 1:10 and change. Tracks right behind the speed of Keyed Entry and Sin Min the whole way. Comes back dancing and nipping at the pony like, "hey, let's go around again" or "you call that a Derby?".

That horse was seriously motoring at the wire. He had a ton of run left.
