It doesn't take much horse to clunk up for 3rd in a fast-paced race. Steppenwolfer ran 3rd in the Derby, Imawildandcrazyguy ran 4th.

It really says nothing about the top two given that they still finished ahead of him.

It does say that Win Willy was a one-hit wonder whose day has already come and gone. Although, I can't imagine anyone was really taking him seriously as a derby horse.
