My final number has Flat Out basically running back to his races at LS and CD, with Tizway obviously slipping a bit too as compared to the monster Suburban number.
My best guess is a Beyer of about 106.
It should be out by now huh?

111 Beyer for Tizway I read.

I got a pretty high number for him. Quite a bit better than Coil and Stay Thirsty.
He's 14/1 for the BC Classic with Paddy Power. I'm not really convinced that he will stay the 10F but he looks like a decent bet at those odds.

IMO the Whitney was obviously the highest quality race of the year so far no matter what the speed figures say. All you have to do is look at how many good or decent horses got totally buried in there to know that. They didn't all misfire. The race was tough and the winner is unquestionably a top class horse. Whether he can engage other quality horses in a fast pace and get 10F in the Classic is at least somewhat debatable, but he's very good.
