Hate to hear this. I thought he was ready to win. One of my top choices.

If Ward feels the 20 hole is too tough to overcome, why did they have him as an AE in the first place? Wouldn't they have known that would be their post position pre-draw?

That is a possibility, but don't picture Pablo Del Monte's ownership group trying to get a Derby starter in from the AE list.
