I suppose that could be a problem but how often do we have a horse go straight from an allowance to the Derby? Either way if you used this system you would probably want the first 16 to be determined by points and the last 4 at the discretion of a committee like the BC. That way if a top Euro or the UAE Derby winner or an exceptional filly want to run there is a way to include them. The horse you suggested could get in through one of the four open spots.
