INTERACTIF declares getting BACKTALK (Miguel Mena rides) in; ENDORSEMENT worked well but exited work with a non-displaced fracture of his right front putting MAKE MUSIC FOR ME into the Derby...

Joel Rosario on MAKE MUSIC FOR ME... Robby Albarado picks up DEAN'S KITTEN...

Just like the barn said, "everything is fine."

WTF? The horse was obviously having some issues - why even bother working him this morning, to make certain he had an issue?

Make Music for Me blows. That is all. Too bad we can't get a few more defections betwixt now and draw time.

So the field becomes more mediocre by the minute. At least Endorsement had a quality win to his name.

Endorsement had the highest last out Beyer. This field is epically bad when compared to previous generations of 3YO's. Only three horses - one a filly - will come into the Derby with a highest lifetime BSF of above 100. That is absolutely unprecedented and brutally slow.

Why would Make Music for Me be considered here? What about his 3YO season shows that he'll be capable of going 10f on DIRT this Saturday? The American Turf seems a better spot to be frank.

Hopefully, Setsuko not being among the entries will ensure a change in the graded earnings system for next year's Derby. Count the horses in this field that have zero graded stakes earnings during their 3YO seasons:

Homeboykris
Make Music for Me


Who am I missing?

Saying it over and over won't ensure a change in the earnings system.

Seems like there are a few others in the Derby field who probably would be a better fit for The American Turf also. Why question just Make Music for Me's connections?

If they didn't change the rules after horses like Sunday Break, Rock Hard Ten and Unshaded were excluded from the Derby, do you really think they are going to do it because of Setsuko?

Obviously, me saying the graded earnings system is broken isn't going to change anything, but that doesn't mean I'm not right on this one.

Find me the horses in those three years with zero graded earnings as 3YO's and then let's discuss. Seriously, we're talking about two horses who, at least in Homeboykris's case, haven't lifted a hoof on the track since like November.

Besides, Rock Hard Ten had his chance two weeks later in the Preakness, and how did that go? Hindsight is always 20/20.
