DP angle goes down as Animal Kingdom had but 8 points (second smallest to the great Count Fleet)...of course so did the must have 5 races angle (only had 4), the race within six weeks angle, and the idea that a horse has to have raced at least once on dirt. All in all, a hard horse to get to....congrats to those who had the wisdom to pick him!

If the clowns from Ireland had actually shipped this colt over and given him time to acclimate and train he could have been a factor, he ran
surprisingly well, he took the dirt in his face and was weaving his way around horses in the stretch, it was comical the way he was prepared for the Derby.

I agree, with better preparation he could have been right there, dirt wasn't the problem.
