i do not buy that whole 'he didn't like oaklawn' line..he worked well over that surface repeatedly. and then to compare that surface to churchill....i think he runs in the derby, and i think they're playing all this patty-cake so they have an excuse if he doesn't win it. after all, mr. porter seems to always have an excuse.
