Do you really think a horse that debuts on Labor Day and takes six months to make his second career start is 2-1 to make any race in a month?

I would take 2-1 on him in either race to hit the board, yes... if I were sure he would make the gate. And I wholeheartedly agree the horse has issues, but remember who we are dealing with here- Dutrow (who could probably raise Lazarus) and IEAH (who are DESPERATE for a Derby starter). IF the horse is healthy, and maybe he is enough to make it two months, he's a legitimate contender.
I would bet everything I have that he doesn't make it past June, however.
