John,
Last I looked Hard Spun has one loss in his career. And that losing effort was a lot better than it looked. While Rick Porter may never shut up and has been meddlesome with Larry Jones' operating with the colt, he hasn't exactly been 'mismanaged'. While he would have likely won the Blue Grass had he gone, you can be assured that Jones will have him ready to run off the 6 week break. He is the most intriguing and difficult entrant to project in this Derby. The pace is certainly going to suit him, and he's the best bred horse in the field for the trip. The questions are exactly how good he is and Mario Pino.
