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!

The 4 legged boys came out of the Derby fine, the 2 legged ones didn’t fare as well.

I was crushed when Tiz did not get to the wire first! I adore the horse from the start of his career,with his noble presence, good looks,natural ability and coming from my home state for a change! I think on this day,Authentic was the best,but still believe that Tiz is more talented,,and either did not have enough time between races, and did not like the track! I felt sorry for HonorAP who got stuck in the beginning and still managed to almost catch up and come in 4th. I
look forward to seeing Tiz in the Breeders Cup after a deserved rest.
