I know I'm in minority here but I think this one has a shot and will be on my ticket. Most of the experts are tossing him. He controlled the pace in Florida Derby and closed very strong. Nice finishing time and back to back 100+ beyer figures. Only horse in field that has done that. Like most horses in the race distance may be an issue but hell there are no stars in this group. Would be an amazing story coming from 16K mcl race (of note from that race was Math Wizard who ran a nice 4th in Wood) to win this.
