is it fair? maybe not. but it's the way it is. even those who know nothing, care nothing, about horse racing have heard of the derby. it's the race. and the longer todd goes without, the more he'll want it. those who win all, set records, have legions of fans, admit that the big one is the one that means the most. the superbowl for football, the world series, the daytona 500, and the kentucky derby....

I don't understand this. You are acting as though Todd has been training for 28 years and has never won a BC race or a Triple Crown race. Believe me, I am not carrying pom poms for him, and find the size of his stable troubling, but make no mistake.....he will win probably more than one Kentucky Derby, as well as Triple Crown races, and most likely sooner than later. History will most likely remember him as a trainer who won pretty much every Grade 1 race in America...including the ones in the Triple Crown.
