yeah, i heard that and realized it had been that long since the top 2 yo took the derby. that's a looong time to wait.
so i hope that those who are already screaming triple crown keep that in mind--about the bid, as well as so many others that tried to make history. of course this year, there's only one horse who can do it now. we shall see.
