Not backtracking. Porter is something of a meddlesome blowhard, but Larry Jones is top flight and the colt has in fact done little wrong. He's bred out the wazoo for this race, has a forward going style and high cruising speed that should fit this Derby pace scenario, and is potentially quite embraceable at a square price next Saturday. I don't think he's been mismanaged per se.. The perception is that he's been mismanaged based on the camp's machinations and their verbal blather associated with his Trail campaign.
