I agree. I am extremely disappointed in that time. I don't know how much the track may have slowed down, if at all, but that was a very slow time. I'm guessing they will split the first two races off from the rest or they may keep all the earlier dirt races together and split off the Distaff and Classic. Without splitting the card, when u see that 1:34.77 for the second race and the 2:02.18 for the Classic, it's not good. Very much like last year. I think it's pretty clear the track slowed down after the first two races. But it seemed to me, in my amateur opinion, that the track stayed pretty much the same throughout the rest of the day. The 4f/6f splits of the other route races:

JF-47.46....1:12.34
Juv-46.67......1:11.74
Dist-46.75...1:11.59
Classic-46.60......1:11.11

Also, I'm not too impressed with Invasor's closing of 25.18 It just seemed to me like the race was slow and none of them were really running at the end.
