Maybe Win Willy can add his own feel good story in about 45 minutes.

Not that I expect it but to see D.Wayne Lukas back in the Derby would be a nice touch.

slow fractions, 2 of the top 3 finishers were within a couple of lengths of the leader at the quarter pole. Only Hold Me Back in second came from out of it. Massone made a move up the race on the turn and continued on at one pace for third. Terrain collects some more purse money in fourth. (Like I said, must use underneath in exotics.) Join in the Dance and Jojo were the early leaders, finished 5th and 9th.
Can't call General Quarters a Poly-horse; in retrospect we should have seen it coming, with Musket Man validating the Tampa Bay form. Massone's race indicates that the No Cal form can't be discounted.

Everyone in the racing office at Tampa Bay despises McCarthy and knows what a fraud he is. Miller worked day after day all winter getting General Quarters to calm down and accept instruction. Typical that his reward is to get screwed.
