Honestly, if Harlem Rocker doesn't run, this race is an absurd mismatch. I seriously can't remember as soft a bunch facing a Derby winner. Slew had a potential rival in Cormorant, Pleasant Colony had to deal with Bold Ego's speed, hell Golden Act ( second to Spectacular Bid ) was a monster relative to these. Barbaro had the potential talent of Sweetnorthernsaint ( forgetting about Bernardini ) and even Brother Derek....all of whom would be odds on against this bunch.
I guess if you line up numbers 21 through 30 of this year's KY Derby probables you don't rate to get a very swift bunch.
