However, I do think this is a terrible idea. Really, he may end up being a good horse but this exhibit A of what not to do with a promising yet fragile 3YO.

I don't think it takes an experienced horseman to give pause to what Kirian is doing with Charitable Man. But without being in the barn with the horse the past few months, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he'll only move forward to the derby if the horse really proves himself.
A safer route would probably be going to the Derby Trial at a mile, and then pointing for the Peter Pan, but he contends this is one special and talented colt, so we'll see.
