Tacitus and Mucho Gusto slugged it out upfront and the only horse close enough and with enough starch to get them was Code of Honor.
Seems pretty clear cut to me who the best in that race were.

I agree, I didn’t like anyone from the Curlin. I thought that race came up slow compared to the Jim Dandy and Haskell. Plus, Code Of Honor gets no love from the derby run where he was at least second best in that race. I knew skipping the Jim Dandy would boost his price too. Out of sight, out of mind. People were saying he was pace dependent. Yeah in Florida he was but the two before today, derby and Dwyer he was picking them up without a fast pace. This horse is the real deal right now. That was impressive today.
