In retrospect, I have to think that Paddy O'Prado would have at the very least hit the board in the BC Turf (maybe 12f isn't his best distance, but he certainly can handle the added furlongs). Had he done that and then won this Hollywood Derby Allowance 2x masquerading as a Grade 1, I don't think we would need to bother debating whether Gio Ponti or Winchester should be the one to back into the turf champion Eclipse.
Actually, a good debate would be who was managed worse by Dale Romans, Paddy O'Prado or First Dude.
