Well I certainly agree that I hear far too many trainers blaming displacing these days when the horse appeared to have run its race and just been short.
But in the cases where they do entrap or displace for real, I think its the biggets excuse there is. Horses will run through pain, even great pain, but they can't run a step if they can't breathe.

Thankfully I don't.

I'm also joking as it is the only thing I remember about Ride the Rails.

What top 2YO ( and later top 3YO and 4YO ) made its debut on that Florida Derby card?

Paradise Creek? He was a 3YO in 1992 ( 2nd to Lure in the BC Mile at Gulfstream ).

Unaccounted For didn't debut until he was 3...but it was at Gulfstream. Did he lose to that Brothers short lived uber-phenom in his debut...Carnivale or something like that? I know he ( Unaccounted For that is ) lost by a neck at 8:5ish in his debut.

Yeah it was canaveral. The Relaunch horse Brothers had.
I remember that card and where I was that day and this question is driving me crazy.

Like I said earlier...you were still in diapers.

Kiri came along, as usual, to bail you hopeless cases out.

Yeah, Canaveral won by a pole, I think, in his debut. As I recall his career ended shortly thereafter.

Reading comprehension skills will tell you he meant seasonal debut.
