tread,
it looks as though DD just doesn't want to run the classic distances. i think he got his chance in the SA Derby, while getting a decent three wide trip (would you expect a better trip in the Ky Derby?) the horse has had Smith, Espinoza, Flores, Nakatani, and Bailey on his back, and still only has two wins from ten starts. furthermore, his late pace #'s from his last two SA races were 89 and 75. It's not like he was running too wide then closing with a rush, he just wasn't finishing.
