I hope Circular Quay isn't being kept out of any preps in order to enhance the chances of another Pletcher horse getting enough earnings for the Derby. To rob fans of matchups of top horses because he is training too many good horses is a very unfortunate price for racing to pay and a bad indicator for the future.
If he actually does train CQ up to the Derby, I would be rooting mightily against CQ. That's all we need is for some horse to miraculously win the Derby off an 8-week layoff.
