I understand that Shug plans on passing the Derby
with Sightseeing. On hearing this I
immediately thought of Survivalist not being entered after
finishing a distant
second to BR in the
Wood. Watching the Derby fall apart
that year, I wished
that Survivalist was
there to pick up the
pieces. Does anyone believe that, given Sightseeing is healthy out of the Wood, Shug might
be mistaken holding him out of the race?  Why is he so gunshy about
the Derby, or is this
philosophy belong to the Phipps family?
