When I asked "What does POTN have to do...", I legitimately wanted to know what they feel he has to do.

is anyone really anti-POTN? wanting to see success on dirt to answer if a horse has dirt form doesn't make one anti-anything-execpt maybe anti-speculation based on breeding alone. i'm a person who has to see something to believe it can happen-just like most of us had to see mine that bird actually win that thing to think he had a shot at the derby.
i think POTN needs to win a top race on a fast dirt surface, while facing top horses. it's a shame that the field fell apart, and what looked like one of the better derby renewals we've had in a while turned into a scratch filled slopfest. imo the derby is a toss, the results aren't meaningful, since many of the better thought of horses left in the field failed to run their race. or, i think they did. maybe some horses were under-, and others, over-rated. that's why i'm hoping the preakness has better weather and a fast track.
