Pace figures for Derby Prep races so far

Comma to the Top went 14 points (or exactly 5.75 lengths) faster than The Factor did in his Rebal win.

Perhaps you missed that because I spelled the Rebel 'r-e-b-a-l' .....

Was looking at Factor's San Vicente...anyway, you get the point.

The San Vincente was more like two divisions of one race - than one actual race.



The Factor (who romped in Rebel next out) and Premier Pegasus (who romped in the San Felipe at 7/1 next out) have the purple.

City Cool - who forced the mind boggling pace figure - is the only one from division #1 of the race who hasn't run back yet.



His Beyer regressed 20-to-25 or so points - but the San Vincente was his best race.


Division #2 of the race has produced three horses who all came back to tank beaten double digit lengths at short prices next-out. At least Sinah (4th early in San Vincente) forced a big pace collapse in the Sunland Derby. The two behind him were flat as a pan cake with rating tactics on the stretch-out in distance. Sway Away in red.
