Blackberry Road has $123k in Graded earning according to Churchill's kentuckyderby.com site.
I've been wrong a lot more than I've been right but I agree that Ohio Derby is a more realistic goal for Blackberry Road.
Yet if he's eligible, I'm sure the owners will enter him in Kentucky Derby 134. Take a look back of past winners of the Kentucky Derby at drf.com in their Kentucky Derby section and you'll see some sensible fields of 13 or 14 in 1994, 1997, and 1998.
I'm sure we will get a full field of 20 this year but most at least half the field will have no business running in the race.
