I think that was about as much as you could hope for from Hansen.

He wound up getting hung wide because of the post, but instead of running a a kamikaze first part, he relaxed off the pace and still kicked clear. It also looked like he still had some energy in reserve after the finish despite being 3-4 wide first turn.

I hated him going 10F before the race. Now that he has demonstrated he's rateable, I just dislike him going 10F. I still don't think he wants to go that far. But he'll probably become a very good miler/middle distance horse assuming he keeps going forward.
