It sure has been a while. Come to think of it, there haven't been all that many Gotham/Wood winners either. If I were fortunate enough to have a Derby prospect, I don't think I'd want him to winter in the cold North and workout on the inner track of the Big A. There are too many other places to train and prep where the risk of bad weather is less of a factor.
The Gotham winners of the past few years have been: El Kabeir (2015), Samraat (2014), Vyjack (2013), Hansen (2012), Stay Thirsty (2011), Awesome Act (2010) and I Want Revenge (2009).
