Comma to the Top would obliterate a lot of horses in that field at 9fs or futher. He's a horse that can be rated - and when rated - would use his speed a lot more efficently.
Everything in that race - including the winner - was stopping late. Comma to the Top was only stopping at a more severe rate because he actually did some real running.

If you take everything into account, Comma to the Top ran really well. I think you need to forgive horses that stopped in routes there this last weekend. Yea, he was close to fast pace, but the track was also not favoring the front in routes. Preamble made about the same move as P.P. did the day before. Not saying P.P. didn't run great. Just saying Comma ran a lot better than people think he did. He ran so much better than Jaycito (for instance.) Under different circumstances, Comma would of been very difficult to run down. I see the 2 efforts (Comma and P.P.) as being pretty close.
