Jockey Club Gold Cup

I have a question for some more-seasoned TG players about this race.

From my novice POV I feel like I\'m seeing favorites with bad patterns.  Arthur\'s Ride runs a big new top, then backs up two points, possibly signaling an 0-2-X?  Tapit Trice runs a new top fresh off a long layoff and now feels like a risky proposition to meet or exceed that number running back in shorter order.  

Without giving away any state secrets, have I lost the plot here?

No, apparently.
