You can just go back to last year at Woodbine. He hasn't raced that much at 1 1/4 though so it's hard to tell for sure, but that's my opinion.

thats how i read that chart. the two favorites knocked each other out in a speed duel. Its the only way a horse comes from last to win a 1 1/4 mile race in a six horse field. Any kind of sensible pace and he won't get there.

Funny Cide set the pace and had a 6 length lead early on before fading to third. Evening Attire was fourth.

Didn't see the race , just looked at the chart , think FC could of been rated a bit better. This horse always seems to be a victim of his connections.
