Very interesting. I wonder why? It would make sense, because if the track variant was the same all day, Big Guy Ian ran like a GR1 sprinter. Even if the track was fast, Big Guy Ian certainly ran a huge race. It will be interesting to see where R Rod puts him next time...does he protect him, or put him back in for a tag?
