Errrrrrrrnnnnnntttttt !!! [sound of the "wrong" buzzer]

Gen. Duke never made the Derby ... or anything thereafter.

Tom Fool didn't either ... but he was 2YO champ and raced both before and after that year's Derby. Hey ... on that basis I should have also included Nadir ... I'll go back and add him.

Can't include the good Gen. ... or horses like Sir Gaylord, Hail To Reason, Hoist The Flag, Graustark, Boldnesian, etc. ... on any of these lists.

I wouldn't include Kelso, Buckpasser, or Wajima either because they weren't ready to rumble in May/June as 3YOS.
