I still don't think he is a good play in the Derby though (if he goes in that race) even in exotics. I just don't think this horse will be particulary effective going 10f.
His style seems best suited to being a closer in sprint races. I think he will be most effective closing in races run from 6f, to one-turn miles.
He is a fairly versatile horse however, so I could be wrong.
Of course, Storm in May's broodmare sire is Relaunch. A couple of years ago there was another horse out of a Relaunch mare that I didn't think could get 10f effectively. His name was Ghostzapper.
I have now started quoting and arguing with myself. That is always a good sign.
