His sire has nothing to do with why I think he's a legit derby contender. It is a reason I'm a fan of the horse, but I am able to keep those two seperate.
I think his first race was very promising, and believe it or not, I found encouragement from his win the other day.
I am not saying he's the next Secretariat. Just that I think he's one of the three or four most promising 2yos I've seen this crop, in the context of being a derby threat (based on distance ability, he's very green and still running well, etc.).
I don't think he's the type of horse that needs to run big numbers right now.
