The horses who have upset the T.C. candidates haven't had to be great. They just needed to finish up well. It isn't about them. The combination of

1) peaking in the Preakness

2) slightly different surface (looser "big sandy" surface)

3) no tight turns they are so used to

4) 12 f

seems to be what beats them....Not other horses.
