I think the claim that the track isn't messed with a ton on Oaks and Derby day is nonsensical.

I think the fact that some horses love and have run well there plays alot into who I like. It is a fact in the past that some very, very nice horses run like crap there. Holy Bull being one of the biggest. Mike said he hated the track and I think he proved it Derby day. But the fact that SS trains there and won the BC there is just one small reason I love him for the Derby. And if CQ had run anytime in this century, I would have played him also. But the time off is just alittle to much for me.

A very thorough and convincing argument.
