Albany, if its downhill, its marginally downhill for a short piece of ground. Cherokee Whatever ran one good race there. Alex is a bit more horse than Cherokee was. Alex could win this Derby. Whatever you do if you discount him, don't do it on Davidowitz's blurb. It pertained to a Peace Rules article. Funny Cide won that Derby at 13-1. Where was Davidowitz then or Peace Rules for that matter?

Smarty won this race last year running down hill slower if my memory serves. You saw Afleet circle and explode. How much was downhill influenced?
