None of that means that playing against him in this race is the wrong move, but his return certainly has me intrigued.

I didn't like him going into the Derby. Between reports of his possible injury and my utter lack of trust of Mullins under any type of scrutiny I was not going to bet him at 2-1. That's not to discount his Wood Memorial performance which was outstanding of course.
That being said, last years' Derby is still inscrutable to me and we know the results!
