![]() I am curious to hear from you if you think the two prep approach is a complete toss for the win position on May5th or does it just not matter?
Or does it not matter with this crop of 3yr. olds? It has been accomplished before but hardly enough to get the blood flowing to attack this race for the win bet. There are a few that will go this route such as Hard Spun, Great Hunter, Street Sense,CQ to mention a few that will be heavily bet May 5th. Thoughts? Java OUT |

Please tell me then who in the past had great juvenile key races and only ran two preps as a 3yr. old and went to win the Derby? If history is any indicator the derby winner must have 3 preps prior to the derby. And every year we have top class trainers in the derby so why is this year any different? Java OUT |

![]() How many horses have run in the Derby with just 2 preps?...
If the population of 2 prep runners is quite small then it would be reasonable to assume that the number of 2 prep winners would be quite small... Also how many 2 prep runners were Derby Fever type entrants as opposed to notable horses with calculated/planned 2 prep foundation? I am not endorsing the 2 prep approach...I'm simply saying that there are various ways to compare past history to current events....figures lie and liars figure. |

I would prefer a 3-4 race campaign prep but only 2 would NOT be the reason I wouldn't back Street Sense or Great Hunter on Derby Day.
