Hard Spun is still a very nice horse but if his form today is any indication of what he can do in May, I'm gunna go out on a limb and say he is NOT the Derby winner. Every horse has a bad day, and this could have been his. Wide trip or not, if he was in top form, he should have been the winner. Last year's Derby winner overcame the 10 hole at Gulfstream, and we all know who that was. The point I am getting at is that you can't blame the wide trip for getting beat that badly. I can see if he was a little closer to the winner...but getting solidly beat by Teuflesberg??
