It depends on what kind of horse I have... speedball who is unlikely to get 10f's I'd try and take advantage of Pimplico, the slightly shorter distance etc.

That said, I find it hard to believe, with the way the Derby has grown even just in the last decade, that most people would be able to skip it with a horse who was winning preps like those.
