I don't know how Turner could say that the horse would have beaten most of the field. I don't know which race he was watching. It looked to me like BB might have beaten one horse if he didn't ease.

By the way, as I mentioned before, in the interview with Dan Patrick, Desormeaux did admit that, "The only instruction I was given was, 'If he can't win, take it easy on him'."

I think it is pretty obvious that the connections had serious concerns about the horse's condition going into the race or they would have never given Kent those instructions.
