So what it says is the Roman numbers are completly meaningless in picking a Derby winner. Last year his second worst prep performance won the Derby...in 2005, his by far worst prep's 4th place finisher won the Derby. Only Smarty in 2004 was true to his form. I think it is beyond psychotic for Roman to say Teuflesberg ran a better race than Curlin yesterday.
