Looks very chaotic right now.
Wouldn't Giacomo be the 4th or 5th choice in this year's Derby?

You got a point there.
Giacomo would not go off at 52-1 or whatever it was, this year.

Well the terrible crop does make it more likely we will see a Triple Crown winner. If Big Brown is that good and can survive the Derby clusterf*ck there shouldn't be much standing in his way.

Aside from the fact that he'd be 3,000-1 if he actually got in the Derby he also only has $37,500 in graded earnings so would need 20 or less to enter to be able to get in.
