Unless there are points involved, only horses that had won a qualifier (like Ring Weekend) would be using this type of stop. And you would think that if Ring Weekend runs well in Derby, Churchill might put some points onto the race. Not 100-40-20-10, but maybe the Lexington level? Let's see if Calder is running next year first of all, but kudos to Mike Anifantis for getting a Derby horse in the first running of this..
