Even though Royal Blessing was a length and a half behind Uncle B at the 6F of their respective races, he had run faster than his seemingly faster counterpart...because the pace of the former race was faster than that of the latter. It is also folly to compare the inner splits of 7.5F races and 1 1/16M races. IMO, of course.
