I realize that Prado has a reputation

Because this is one of the rare threads this time of year that started out NOT being about the Kentucky Derby, I think we should at least make an effort to keep it that way. Also, I don't know exactly how those distance numbers are calculated....because I don't pay any attention to them.

As for Prado, I would still take him in a big race over almost any other jock out there.
