Well, they are going to the Derby and it looks like ET will get the mount. But isn't this just adding another horse to Scav's list who will be on the lead?

they can't all get the lead, and with a 20 horse break, that will have a huge effect. have to wait til the draw, see who draws where, and then speculate what early speed will actually get to show it....

other than the fact that someone may run into him when he backs up, i think the important point is it's now a 19 horse field.

he's almost meaningless even as a pace factor.
