I think that before anyone automatically discards the results of this race because of they think was an insane speed duel, they would be wise to look at how all of the races on this stuff have been playing out. If you use your conventional thinking of times and fractions and what constitutes a speed duel or a really fast race, you will be way off. For example, if a normal half mile at the track goes in 45 2/5 and you see some horses run in sub-44, it's safe to assume they were going insanely fast. If the norm is 44, however, and some horses go 43 3/5, they might not be going too fast. On this track, we are seeing 6.5f going in under 1:14. We just saw Indian Blessing run a sub-1:20 for 7f. They are going under 1:40 for 8.5f. Conventional thinking doesn't apply on this track.
