Early move south

Showing Up ran well in the Derby, but he did not run at two. Pulpit ran fourth as the favorite in his career-ending Derby, after not running at two.

Running well is one thing, winning the derby is another.

Yes, I agree with you. I would not play a horse to win in the Derby if said horse had not run at two. I learned with poor Pulpit.

I don't think any horse has ever won the Derby without having at least four career starts prior to the first Saturday in May.

Ill give you all the Derby horse now. Westwon

Westwon won a good MSW at Kee back on 10/14 and has noy been heard from since. Has he moved South already? He does have a good Derby pedigree. Gone West out of a Polish Numbers mare shows both speed and stamina. I like seeing both Buckpasser and Swaps on his female side, with Raise a Native and Secretariat on the top side. DWL is one that can get them ready and he should be hungry for a good Derby showing this year.

What? The derby winner is a horse that just broke his maiden on rubber tires?
