I agree with Silver Charm

If 2YO races are Derby preps, man, that's another can of worms altogether.

But I could be wrong.
Nice try (in the Hutcheson thread, too). Guess you're still smarting from the earlier browbeating.

My apologies to all.

Top three Derby preps--that is a tough one.
Let me ponder awhile.

It was so painful I don't remember it. But I am glad your life has been filled up somewhat.

Easy Goer in the Gotham would probably top my list.

I also remember being very impressed with Empire Maker's Florida Derby.

In the last five years nobody impressed me as much as I Want Revenge in the Wood last year.
