I had the Whitney a 115 and the Go For Wand a 91.
I used the same variant for both races.
I think the Go For Wand was a much less impressive race than people think, and doubt the track changed speeds so much in that 30 minutes of time.
If anything, the track would have changed speeds before the Grade 2 sprint stake.
However, the top 7 finishers in that race had only been seperated by four lengths, and it didn't come back eye-opening fast. The last place finisher in the race ran 1:09 and change.
Like the Go For Wand...it was another unimpressive race.
If anyone is looking to try and take away from Lawer Ron's performance, I guess you'd have to start with the fact that the ultra moderate Magna Graduate was the post time favorite in the Whitney.
