Well First Dude at least hits the board in Grade 1 Races,PP ran once after the Derby and it was an 11th. I could understand if it was like a Morning Line situation if PP won the Penn Derby or even the Super Derby(over a better field) but come on the Ohio and OK Derby??
Is there any way that a 3 year old colt can improve or regress significantly between May and November?

Is there any pace scenario with the likely participants that would aid PP's style?

Is the owner a Kentucky guy with a huge ego that wants a runner in the race regardless of the chances for success?

How do you view success? Is a fourth or fifth place check in the classic to be viewed as "successful"?

Regardless of whether or not they are delusional, the connections have been very public since the spring about how high they are on this horse.
