can we please talk about who is going to win the Tropical Park Derby?
at least it is somewhat sooner.

of the ones listed,
I suppose Tiz Wonderful.
but the chances of even half of those making the starting gate on KY Derby day is remote.

ATG will do fine.

Its not like he was winning the Hopeful himself.
may take them time, but they will be runners.
probably will be just as effective on turf also.

as a racehorse, he is one of the most underappreciated I have ever seen.

At least as good as At the Threshhold, I would think. Look, Albert the Great's oldest foals will turn 4 in a few weeks. GOOD GRIEF! You can judge a stallion off of two crops who haven't even reached the age at which he showed his best form? What a wizard you are! Probably thought Dynaformer was a bust when his first runners were 3, too.

hey, if danzig can get grief for being a 'disappointment', i guess ATG can as well....lol

no, seriously...i am amazed that some root against racehorses, but to root against a horse due to who his daddy is takes things a bit far imo. hell, he doesn't know who his father is! lol

So you're saying its too earlier to label him as a dud or brutal sire?
I thought that seemed a little harsh myself since it seemed like I just started noticing his runners this year.
