I don't see it.
Kentucky Derby, Preakness in Cal??? Ha. And no, Bro D. still wouldn't have beaten any of the TC winners this year had they ran the races in Cal.

So u say he needs to run with his caliber of horses. In other words, u are saying that he couldn't run with Star Dabbler or Cielo Gold or Bright One? Are u seriously suggesting that those horses outclass him? If not, then why couldn't he ship to Indiana and run with them? If u are saying there is no need to ship to the Haskell, the Jim Dandy, or the Travers.....I'd go along with that. But to say he couldn't run with the horses that were in the Indiana Derby based simply on the fact that the race wasn't in California is a pretty silly opinion.
