I was wondering if the weather conditions changed the projections. I mean, maybe some horses do better on a dry track while others do better in mud? It didn’t really seem to change the way the commentators were predicting who would win.

Definitely track condition matters. But in this case the conditions were the same as for the Derby. Sloppy. If it were a fast track (dry) then they would have analysed it somewhat differently. Then, Justify would have still been the heavy favorite.
