Dude they do that EVERY DAY at Churchill Downs. Let me explain what I am saying because you seem to have a problem with comprehension. The inside was good yesterday but it was not any different than the way the track has been playing. Therefore you can not say that CD created any bias for the BC because the track has been that way for days. Derby day in the past has been totally different than the previous week with the track at least a second faster. But this week it has been the same. And I also have stated that the inside may have seemed better than it was because I believe that some of the horses were the best horses that just happened to be on the inside. Nowhere did I say that the inside was not good, but it was no different than it has been.
