*Top fig for the entire Triple Crown journey this year was Early Voting's Preakness, a 128
*Historically solid figs for the Preakness & Belmont; the Derby was a bit slow
Yeah we will have a mobile version of TimeformUS this summer that will lay out the pace figs like this as well. It’s a first step, an upgraded desktop version will come later in the year, at last, too.
This is not a post. This is a screenshot from Mobile version of DRF Formulator.
They provide a pace overview that lays out early and late @TimeformUS pace ratings.

Rich Strike's 119 TimeformUS Speed Figure is slow-ish for a Kentucky Derby winner but not terrible. Here's a look at Derby winners going back to 2004, with context on
* 1/2 mile pace figs for the leader + the eventual winner
*then the winner's TFUS Speed Figs in the final column
How fast did they go early in yesterday's Kentucky Derby? Here's historical context on Summer is Tomorrow's 1/2 mile time of 45.58 (adjusted fraction, of course). The only frontrunner who went faster early was Promises Fulfilled in 2018, in the Derby ultimately won by Justify:
Sure but good luck when those AEs draw in @TimeformUSfigs
The only place you will find this version of the @TimeformUS Kentucky Derby Pace Projector is right here, because I manually added in the deep closers! :)

-yes the KY Derby Pace Projector will include the presence of Summer is Tomorrow (& Crown Pride), as @TimeformUSfigs has done early pace figs for each.
-the Projector, as well as PPs for the entire Derby racecard, should be available before 7pm tonight @ TimeformUS.com
Overseas horse, the algorithm doesn’t have interior fractions to analyze, as noted on the Projector. @TimeformUSfigs will spend some time on him in the piece he’ll write about Derby pace that is part of our package.
The 1st cut of the TimeformUS Pace Projector for the Kentucky Derby is now up & you can see why Chad Brown may wait for the Preakness with Early Voting. We'll update the Projector as changes come in, exclusively in our loaded Derby Package. Get it here:
