There was no magical seam, no rail card and no pace help. The winner wins that race a majority of the time.

He finishes a well beaten third in last year's Preakness IMO with the same trip fighting it out for the minors with Musketman, that's the reality of it when analysing the type of field that ran yesterday.

I guess I am, no doubt she and maybe Mine That Bird ran the better races last year.
