IMO Maxfield has been one of those horses that was simultaneously overrated and underrated by different subsets of horseplayers.
The Beyer figure came back a low 99, but visually I liked the effort. Staking a faster horse is not his game. That was a pretty savage battle in the middle before he put a away very good horse in Midnight Bourbon and then he was game to hold off Happy Saver.
