I don't see it likely he's a legit Derby threat.

wasn't he like 4/5 going onto yesterday with his only loss being by a head to honor code I think? I agree that he had some hype to him but compared to others in the mix he was far from being a paper champion

The remsen was ugly and honor code hasn't done much since then.

He hasn't beaten much of anything and there are several in this crop that are clearly better than him.

On the plus side, he does strike me as a type of horse that can easily improve with age, but for his chances in the derby? He will need much to go perfectly his way to win, and that is including things before the race even happens.
