Desert Party is a will or he won't Derby type entry, there will be no in between

Fresian Fire I discount from the win spot because of the "no major prep in April" thing, and, despite always running on dirt, never receiving a Beyer fig on par with what the vast majority of past Derby winners(pre-synthetic ) had already achieved coming in: a 105+ Beyer in a two turn race. People are tying him in with Hard Spun due to the connections, but didn't Hard Spun have some more major preps?
I might be wrong there, so feedback, please

I believe Hardspun was yanked out of Oaklawn by Jones because of the surface right? Anyway, I appreciate the feedback Mike (my name too by the way), I think Desert Party will end up going, and he should like the extra distance, I could see him getting a piece of those 2nd or 3rd points.
