We learned the rail was good yesterday, especially for the derby. Period.
The points system makes it a more truly run race? Nonsense. Look at the tri and super yesterday... Certainly not formful.
The new points system slows the pace? Nonsense. They went 46.53 to the half. 2013 and 2015 were among the fastest opening half miles in history.
The 1 hole is ok? Nonsense. The 2 horse pulling up out of the gate certainly helped lookin at Lee grab a little more breathing room than he otherwise would have had.
As far as 5 favorites in a row... Nothing more than a statistical anomaly.
Congrats to anyone who hit the race but it's nothing more 1 data point to consider moving forward.
