The problem is these horses have been working, schooling and racing Since March with no one around. The only people allowed in the barns, the paddock, winners circle Etc are 

the trainer, jockey, groom and maybe 1 more person. 
The Derby was run with owners, friends and a few others in attendance. This was a huge crowd compared to what the horses have seen lately. It is lucky Bob and all the people in the winners circle were not injured.

As I suspected Tiz and CD surface not compatible, all things considered he ran a spectacular race

I'm not sure it's that as much as most of the field misjudging Authentic. I think no one thought he could get the distance, and he wasn't being pressured up front.

It doesn't matter. I'm truly heartbroken.

 I feel sad- I wanted Tiz to win so badly--- It looks like they will give him a breather and train up to the Breeder's Cup and that sounds like a good idea. I guess they all underestimated Authentic's ability to get

the distance, but he did and he ran a very nice race.

Well the jockey and the trainer are both saying surface played a big part in Tiz’s loss. 
I know you were routing for Tiz he ran great!
