Hard Spun was training horrible according to the experts going into the Derby and Breeders Cup Classic. He ran 2nd in both races.
Nehro was a complete toss according to Welsch and Gary Young last year. (to be fair they both loved Animal Kingdom)
Now this year, ,El Padrino is the toss off his works.
The thing is, El Padrino has never been a good work horse.
Yeah, I'd liked to see more than a 53 half the week of the Derby but, at 25-30:1 I'll take my chances.
