Jamie Sanders and Donnie Kelly bought a horse for 8 thousand dollars. The horse has run off 400 thousand dollars and is now a stallion prospect. What good is running in the Derby Trial? It does this horse absolutely no good to run on undercards, or overnights. Maybe you guys are missing the point. The point is to run this horse against the best, and let him get in where he fits in. Hes better than 15 horses what will go into the starting gate on Derby day. This horse has more than paid for himself, the goal is to get graded stakes wins, or places. Makes no sense to run him in any race that isnt of that kind, regardless of distance.

Jamie, the fact is he was beat a head running against a bias against the 2yo champion. He waxed Hardspun, he lost a head to Scat Daddy, exactly where does this horse belong? He belongs in any G1 race he can get into, regardless of distance, his class will carry the extra furlong.

If that came off shitty its not supposed to be.
