history does not bode well for him because there aren't to many horses that started at 3 that have won the Kentucky Derby. with the job that this trainer does i would not be that surprised if the horse bucks history!

That is called the curse of Apollo. Like every other statistically based "you can't win the Derby if", it will be broken eventually. We have already had several Derby winners with abbreviated 2 year old campaigns win.
