I still don't buy it. It was the single biggest Beyer adjustment of all time. 32 point adjustment! 1:45 for a one turn 8.5 furlong race wouldn't be a 109 if they were running on marshmallows. I think the way Bluegrass Cat trounced him in the Haskell pretty clearly established it as a BS 109. The rest of that field was Doc Cheney, Da Stoops (way past his best distance), Regent Spirit, Dontfearthereaper, and an already toasted Keyed Entry. Pathetic.
