Bellamy Road's performance was better than Esky's and he lost. I'm very concerned about the 1:13 and 3 yesterday. The Derby pace will be 1:11 and 3 at the slowest. Either set by Rule, Conveyance, Sydney or American Lion. If Esky uses any of his speed to stay within 5 lenghts he won't have the the finishing touch he has had the last 2 races. Could still win very easily. But if they opt to lay 10 lengths back of that pace. I'm not so sure. Plus we still have post positions.
