I rely more on Bris SFs, but look at the Beyers (and Equibase) SFs for comparative purposes in fine-tuning my handicapping selections.
The thing I found most interesting here was -- for the Derby and Preakness -- there were only 2 instances each (of 29 years) where the winner earned a 100 or less BSF.
In contrast, the past seven Belmont winners were rated at 100 or less ...
