This was a question of mine shortly after hearing their plans.

That said- he is currently tied for 13th amongst horses headed to the Derby, so therefore 7 horses have to pass him and there are only 7 possible slots that earn enough to jump over him on a standalone basis (1st in the remaining 6 preps + 2nd in the Ark Derby) so a lot of things would have to happen for him to be excluded.
