Fractions today for Corinthian were pretty remarkable in their consistency:
24.03
23.84
23.84
23.85
12.48
The fact that he was pushed hard through the wire isn't a great sign as the slowing time could mean he was tiring but still a very solid race.
Jazil's fractions are interesting as well:
24.99
23.36
23.44
24.57
13.20
The good news is I am pretty sure Jazil had never broke 24 for a 2 furlong stretch in any of his races so at least he showed a little more speed than in his previous efforts. The bad news is the energy he used to run furlongs 3 through 6 under 47 really took its toll as he was crawling down the stretch going slower than he had ever gone at any point in any of his previous races.
