The Derby went through a real slump a few years ago, with none of Kris Kin, North Light, Motivator and Sir Percy doing much (if anything) after winning it. It looked like the Derby was quickly losing relevance.

Have the last two years, in which it's been won by two outstanding horses among the best 3yos of their year, been a coincidence? Or are things turning around for the Derby?
