I am more worried that we wind up seeing turf horses in the Derby. There are very few opportunities for 3yo turf horses before the Triple Crown which will make races like the Lane's End and the Blue Grass a lot more enticing for them. If turf horses go to those races and do well their connections might actually be stupid enough to suddenly think the horse belongs in the Derby (similar to them putting Asi Siempre in the Distaff). I guess there are 8-10 horses in the Derby that don't belong as it is so it probably won't be too much different.
