It's too early to assume how good or not MTB is...let him finish out the year at least before comparing him to past horses who finished in the money in all 3 TC events

I was talking about natural talent, of course he has accomplished more by winning the derby.

Mane Minister was a lot like Mine That Bird in that he tweaked his running style for the Ky Derby.

MM set a solid pace in the Santa Anita Derby and faded out of the money - and next out rallied to finish 3rd at about 100/1 odds in the KY Derby.

Trivia, the horse who beat Mane Minister in his debut sired both parts of a post time favored entry in the Kentucky Derby .. name him.
