38 flat instead of 37 4/5
Vinman: In order to determine the impact value for those that achieve 38 or less in a big 5 prep race we have to look over all entries in all Derbies back to 1973 to find out the percentage of starters that qualified by racing the last 3/8 in 38 flat or less. I am not going to do that research but I would guess that the difference would NOT be worthwhile because you only add 3 winners in the last 45 years and the percent of starters that qualify probably goes up enough to prevent the impact value from ascending much.
