I don't know exactly when the committment was made either but it's been known that MTB was going in the WV Derby for a little while now. Even if it wasn't that race, there was the possibility of the Dandy for him. And then after that, the connections of both are probably thinking Travers so there was going to be a conflict somewhere along the line.
I don't have a problem with Borel making the choice he's made, if in fact he's going to stick with the other horse. The only thing I find interesting about it all is how little he thinks of the Derby winner to where he's make this committment to another horse before that horse is even a stakes winner.
