Steve, do you think there should be Derby prep points associated to this race?

Sure, but it will have to be in '14.. And for this year, remember that graded earnings still figure into the equation as tiebreaker.

It was obviously a smart move by the racing association in New York to shuffle this race to the start of the season.

Either that, or make the race extinct.

How? Im not saying I want the horse to get injured. He is by a sprinter. The female family is all sprint. I also know even if he were to be pulled up he would not be a huge price sprinting. But if he is as good a sprinter as I think he can be then 5-2 is fine.
