For whatever impact it might have had, Epicenter had a hard race in the Derby 2 weeks ago, finishing a close 2nd. Early Voting finished 2nd in a G2 about 6 weeks ago. That extra rest had to have some impact.
Early Voting's people were on TV after today's race and sounded very iffy about the Belmont. Epicenter now has had 2 hard races in 2 weeks, and only 3 weeks to get ready for the Belmont.
