Depends on who it is. If it is a mid-fielder or one under duress in the reports, I'd agree. But if it's a Top Dog....1750 miles in 28.5 hours at a 61 mph average is par for the course.Whomever they are, heading to Atomic City for the experimental breeder reactor #1 bonus is not a good move right now. Maybe they lost track of what day it is? This rider was sleeping last night, so I don't think it was David Uhl, but that's just a WAG.
I don't see anybody that couldn't physically make it in time at this point within IBA/IBR limits.
