brother derek can compete. he was how wide all the way 'round in the derby, and still picked up a check. and then he had the bad luck to be behind barbaro when he broke down in the preakness, that sure didn't help him out there--and what do you know...picked up another check.
don't discount this horse. he had some rotten luck/rotten trips in the tc.
i don't see him coming to the travers, that's the craziest idea i've seen today.
just think...comes back early in sept, runs well, has one more race, and if he runs well he comes to the bcc as his third off a layoff. i bet that's their plan...any hiccups, there's always next year.
