Last week's fastest stakes winner is in the eye of the beholder.

Offlee Naughty earned the highest Brisnet Speed Rating, 107, for his win in the Grade 3 San Luis Rey at Santa Anita. He's 2-for-2 for the year, with his other win coming in the Charles Whittingham (G2).

Drew's Gold got the highest Beyer Speed Figure, according to Daily Racing Form, with a 98 for his effort in the Runhappy (G3) at Belmont Park. The 3-year-old son of Violence is now 4-for-4, with two stakes wins.

And Red Knight earned a 122 TimeformUS Speed Figure, the highest posted so far for stakes winners last week. The 9-year-old, who has raced 34 times, earned his first graded-stakes win in the Man o' War at Belmont.

Another horse of interest over the weekend was Arcangelo, who toughed out a win in the Peter Pan (G3) at Belmont. He received a 101 Brisnet rating, 97 Beyer and 117 TimeformUS figure for his effort.

Here are the figures for last week's stakes winners, ranked by Brisnet Speed Ratings, with Beyer Speed Figures and TimeformUS Speed Figures where available.
