These runners came into the 2007 Derby off sythetic preps:

Street Sense
Hard Spun
Sedgefield
Dominican
Zanjero
Great Hunter

Three of them landed in the first five slots.

But didn\'t most of them run reasonably good races in those preps?

The bigger the loss,the longer the odds..............It appears that first race on the dirt may cause the bounce. The poly horses in Arkansas ran their asses off. The best on poly,John, and the best on dirt,Pyro, could get it done on the big day.......................
