Xchanger is not really a Pimlico horse. He merely ran very well at Pimlico.
There was a Pimlico horse recently that ran very well in the Classics. He finished second to War Emblem at very high odds. I can't recall his name just now.
The main problem that Xchanger has is that the first three finishers in the Derby are not Giacomo, Closing Argument and Don't Ge Mad. I think he could get into the exotics but to do so Bounce will have to play a role. You have to wager upon Bounce, Multiple Bounce and Myriad Bounce to move him up into the exotics.
That said, I believe you have to factor him.
