The thing is, Steve, how much do they have to move forward?
Odysseus has shown he's a game horse but you also have to ride the hair off of him and those types seldom hold up to a setup like three races in seven weeks. Schoolyard Dreams is probably deserving of a more patient ride as it seems like Jeremy Rose has an idea of what works at Tampa that's just not good at all.
This is a question we're going to have to ask ourselves numerous times between now and May 1, that is, who can move up the most as what we've seen so far, even from top contenders like Lookin at Lucky, just isn't going to win the Derby.
