Every winner except Gun Runner, enhancing his performance, went past leaders on their outside starting with Battle of Midway over Sharp Azteca and Forever Unbridled and Paradise Woods through the Juvenile winners and Sprint winners. But go ahead and talk yourself into how fair and even the track was.

Hoping Drefong takes a shot at the Cigar Mile, he had no shot with the setup and inside, maybe since they see him as a sprinter he is something like 2/1 in that race.
