Those that are wanting to embrace David Carroll's exciting colt should not be concerned about the 'finishing kick/closing times' as Oaklawn is a bizarre oval when it comes to this analysis. Remember back to the Afleet Alex and Smarty Jones seasons because the final quarters have frequently seemed slow in this series. Randy Moss discovered years ago that the stretch at Hot Springs runs slightly uphill

Oh yeah, now that you say it, I kind of remember hearing about that uphill thing before. His race still didn't seem that impressive to me given the suspect nature of the competition, but a 96 certainly makes him one of the top contenders at this point.
