Even though he's run much better with each of his four races this year - He's still slower than Old Fashioned - and Old Fashioned had just one work for this race today and hasn't had the Cowboy hat guy tighten the screws yet.
Hard Spun went into the Derby off of a five week layoff - since FF is so heavily raced this year - I think he might go into the race off of a six week layoff. Probably will run in the Blue Grass if he chooses one final prep.
