What's this I'm hearing about a possible try for the Derby Trial followed by the Derby? Seriously? Admittedly it sounds like they're not completely sold yet, but they're still talking about the chance if he blows them away in the Trial. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/hor...ory?id=5052314 'scuse me The Cliff's Edge Derby Trial.

I've heard of a tight squeeze working out. It's not like it hasn't been done to great success since a horse doesn't always need a million weeks between races, but if he's got the mental issues it sounds like he does, surely a 19 horse field could be problematic for everyone. Is it just overblown or was he really about to go for a stroll in the infield? I'm having trouble watching the race right now so I can't see for myself.
