Formal Gold and Will's Way ran figures like that several times going two turns. Easy Goer was in the neighborhood as well. Andy Beyer also went back and estimated Secretariat's Belmont Stakes figure would have come in at 139.

He's already cemented his greatness by making really good horses look ordinary. Could he get beat Saturday? They all can get beat, but it's probably not happening. Still, that's an excellent field he's facing. Epicenter seems like he may have another forward move in him and the 10 furlongs won't be a problem, but even that might not be enough to get him close.
Lost the 1st Turf BC race by picking the wrong Irish horse. Came back with a nice payout in the 7th, on the dirt, with Wonder Wheel. I'm bullish on Tyler Gafflione. That was a nice ride. Next race, really like Chad Brown on the Turf but coupling him with the five horse. We will see.
Amazingly I hit the first turf simply by riding Appleby and Buick…. 9-10 in money for 2022 in the us. Riding that in the last as well.
Might have to go with the hot hand in the 10th. Want to see how Chad Brown does in the 8th because I like his horse in the 10th along with the Mike Smith/Jeff Mullins horse. But so far your horse is the early favorite. Normally I don't go too exotic when there are so many horses in the race but maybe I'm playing with house money.
Indeed. He has made some very good horses look ordinary on days when they showed up and ran their races.
Great story, great call, great win.
Very good Flightline article. Gives you the entire history.
