Fellas-- look at the last 10 or so Derby winners, and where they were at this point in their careers. Even SJ-- who tipped his hand earlier than most-- was still pretty much a Philly Park horse (one inner track win, I think).
On TVG yesterday, Lyons and Bray were asked, "is there such a thing as a good bet at 50-1 in the future book right now". Answer from both-- they would want 50-1 on a horse STARTING in the Derby from here.
I'm with them. Nothing wrong with making lists-- it's that time of year-- but the ones doing well in big races to this point are seldom the ones making noise in May.
