I've a hard time believing a colt by Yonaguska can win the Derby.

Sure. But I won't bet that it does. I don't think he's beaten all that much in his 5 wins.

I'm afraid to look at Derek Ryan's record in Grade 1 races.

maybe so but this maybe his best horse that he has had and you can't say that about the other trainers per se
