I'm totally throwing out Hard Spun's race. OP had one of the worst inside speed biases I've ever seen there. The track had been rolled all weekend to get all of the moisture out due to concerns about freezing. He carried 3 to 7 # more than any other horse. All the speed was to his inside so when he broke out he was wide into the first turn. The jock kept him wide and tried to make a move coming wide out of the last turn. No horse was able to do that the entire weekend. Plus, that jock was not familiar with OP. I'll give him one more shot.
