Not that Arthur's Tale was the horse, but it just seems many of the three year olds (at least as of late) can't stay healthy enough to endure the entire Derby trail/TC series.

Is this an over reaction, or does anyone else feel the same way?
Depends how old you are?

I was alive, but very young.
The first horse/derby I remember was when Pleasant Colony won.
