Re the Derby- my first superficial take on an impact of an offtrack:
Epicenter and Zandon have won on tracks labeled “good..” Epicenter’s was at Churchill in a one turn mile. Todd’s 3 horses: Mo Donegal, Charge it and Pioneer of Medina are all bred pretty well for an off track but have never run on one.
It also matters whether the track is ‘sealed’- that keeps it fast and seems to favor front runners, unsealed, not as much. Orb came from last place to win on an off track.
Whether the track is sealed or not (and before which race, seems like a fairly big deal at any given point in time and I''m not sure we can count on the yokels on NBC to keep us informed on that. I wish the track was required to list that along with the track condition. This also makes 2 day bets more difficult as well as multi race bets.
edit- It's early in his career at stud, but Gun Runner's offspring are killing it on offtrack: 36 percent from 42 starts.
