Well Monzante looked like an up-and-comer at Hollywood last December when winning an allowance event, so I don't think too many were worried about him handling the surface (though I don't know if his speed figure for that race was competitive for a graded stakes).
I think the 2nd of your points (Mitchell horse off a huge effort) was at play here.
Either way, I was dead wrong.
