I'm surprised you dropped Hard Spun that far.
Thought I didn't post it on this board before the race, I strongly felt he would lose the Southwest and said so before the race---I really saw a lot of circumstancial things against him going into that race.
Honestly, the more times I watch his race on Monday, the more I seem to fall for it.
I think he'd easily beat that same field again in a fairly run race, and with his rider putting him in the race early on.
I guess the question was---how good was that field? Like you, I would also have him at #7 on my Derby list....but I would have had him in that same spot going into the race.
If I was more confident in the validitiy of the 100 Beyer figure the race got, I'd even be a tad bit tempted to move him up a spot.
