IWR doesn't have the clearest form in the world but he is probably one of the top 3 or 4 Derby horses.

cheap looking pedigree - but maybe he's just a stud or maybe the right mix with that Argentinian blood

combine the pedigree with having Mullins as the trainer and it's easy to suspect a trainer move-up above his natural class. - however he has been fairly consistent

The Gotham was basically an allowance race - but he had a brilliant finish - however that finish was equaled (at least in times) by Imperial Conformation

The Wood was an awful field of ungraded stakes/allowance type horses - however IWR broke horrible and ran behind a wall of offensive lineman - however the others rushed the pace and set it up for him

lots of questions. He could cheap out in the Derby if he has to run 10 furlongs against some other good horses, and he could also win...
