I'm assuming that BROTHER DEREK, with the 3w trip and all, ran at or around his top.
If so, I think his 3yo pattern screams for a break-out race in the Classic. Historically, California horses have run well at CD in the Breeders Cup which cannot be said about everywhere else, including Belmont Park.
If Hendricks decides to go, and BRO DEREK finally draws inside, I believe he's a major player in the Classic. In a year where we have seen some pretty nice 3yos and where the Handicap Division has been less than stellar, why not two 3yos battling down the CD stretch.
Good Luck,
Joe B.
