It's a disgrace. How can you explain 123 horses nominated for the big point race, and 4 show up for the prep?

Perhaps its because its worth only 10 pts for the Derby if you win and trainers are looking down the road to races worth more points by have a fresher horse. You can blame CDI for that! Besides that how can they make Dubai Derby with so many points and not have the Illinois Derby worth zero?
