Actually BC had good workouts leading up the Derby. He lost a shoe in the Tampa Bay Derby, got trounced by SM in the Bluegrass. His works on 4/2 and 4/9 before the Bluegrass were very very good. He only worked once before the Derby on 4/29 and it was a maintenance work. I saw him the entire week last year and he looked good. I had him to win and on bottom of the exacta. But didnt have Barbaro.

I heard the opposite. I heard that he looked like shiat leading up to the derby, but started to look a lot better derby week...
