Yes I've read all the comments on the thread and NO ONE, repeat NO ONE, tried to build this horse up to be the derby winner. You're using a strawman.

Fine no derby, how about "His win just now was one of the most incredible things I ever saw. This horse is the goods, and he will run all day. I don't care who debuts where and does what to who, as long as this horse is in training there won't be a two year old who will touch him. And how scary is it that he wants to go farther. I havent seen a two year old like this horse in over ten years. Its about time!!!"

That is a ridiculous statement for a slow horse that won by 1 length. Everyone, and I mean everyone that knows the Pletcher barn (or his father) knows that the Dogwood one they have is a better horse and the other one Scat Daddy is also better. So i guess the "there won't be a two year who will touch him" statement isn't over the top.

is the Quay part pronounced:

Kay or
Key?

Everywhere I have seen the word Quay used, it was always properly pronounced as key.

You got it.

Read in the paper today it's pronounced Circular KEY. Kway does sound cooler though.
