Default Derby pedigree analysis

Here's a link for some background that you may find useful.

I'll start with Creative Cause by Giants Causeway o/o Dream Of Summer. Can he get the distance? I have reservations. His female bottom line (family) is, after Dream Of Summer, lacking in breadth and depth having produced only modestly throughout. The 2nd and 3rd dams are speed oriented. Can this be the beginning of a great family? It has to start somewhere but I'll pass on Creative Cause because I don't believe the pedigree foundation, specifically the family, is there to get the distance in this race, at this level.
