The fact that Tueflesburg cleared so quickly just to the inside of him could have helped in making the decision to take advantage of that scenario and move GH up and closer to the rail???? Who knows though...
All in all...a complete toss of a race. I do think GH will be best served with his "one big run" tactics in the Derby, although he will need some luck in making his way through traffic, with what appears to be another large Derby field.
