Old Fashioned was less than two lengths off the 22 3/5 quarter and a 46-flat half set by Silver City, who is a very talented sprinter. OF ran quite hard from start to finish and still finished eight lengths clear of everybody else. While it's nowhere near a Derby performance, OF wasn't a slouch by any stretch today. I'm thinking King's Bishop could up his wheelhouse (and Silver City's) by the time the Derby Trail dust settles.
