GIDDY UP GRIFF's full profile →

Settled 7th of 8 and still 7th at the corner, it gave the race a start and won anyway — 6 places made after the bend. Only 23% of winners come from the back half: the run is worth more than the margin shows, and it needed a genuinely run race to land it. A slow tempo next start is the first thing that blunts this shape.
