You're all getting ahead of yourselves. The race is still 3 weeks away. There are still 3 major prep races to be run. To award the Ky Derby to Bellamy Road off his effort in the Wood or call him the fastest 3 yo. Nope, not buying that. If the race were today, I'd take Consolidator but we'll find out more about him on Sat.
Rockport Harbor isn't out of the pictue until he paints himself out of the picture.
Someone mentioned Empire Maker. At this point two years ago, Frankel & Bailey were talking triple crown for him before he even won the Derby. They ought to have known better.
Smarty Jones - I saw his second race, he ran 1:21 & change over a track that wasn't particularly fast. Two yo's simply don't do that.
