I dont think I have ever cheered harder for a horse I didnt have any action on...it is a great story. I dont think anyone could disagree, give the horse a shot at some more graded earnings, and if he qualifies....send him to the Derby. As long as he is healthy heading in, the connections may live a lifetime of regret if they dont do it. Besides, he wont hurt any future stud fees if it dont pan out, he comes from way humble beginnings. It could only be positive.

if his name was joe schmo, this story would be so different. pull a few heart strings, bam. now he deserves a derby run, just because of the backstory?? forget the emotion for a minute, does this horse actually, truly belong, after one upset win?

no, seriously--i haven't seen anyone write a post yet about this horses effort, his run that resulted in a win...all i've seen is that it's a nice story. that's fine, everyone likes a story--but is anyone here looking to put a bet on this guy next time out?

the horse jumping shadows actually ran a 96 Beyer his last out (nikkisgoldensteed...one of the best two turn Beyers by a boy this year) and he beat him. So I think that's worth something at least.
