So Barbaro, Street Sense & Smarty Jones all had good works so that made them win? Werent they also favored or close to it and shown the most talent heading into the race?
Works are incredibly overrated. Unless a horse is a first out maiden they can be helpful.
Really, like Philski said, the only thing you can take from Derby works is if the horse looks sore or injured. Besides that all these horses are nice horses and all should look "dappled" and work like they normally do. Doesnt mean anything..
Except for redboarding after the race when a 50-1 shot win and people say "oh the horse has dapples and was working so great thats why he won"
