Quality Road is no longer in consideration for the Kentucky Derby following the development of yet another quarter crack. He was supposed to breeze this morning at Belmont Park, but was unable to because he still had some tenderness on the quarter. Due to this, he was pulled out of the Derby this Saturday. I really think this will have a big effect on the Triple Crown this year, especially if he runs in one or both of the other two races. Quality Road stands a really good chance to be the horse to come sweep the Belmont away from a possible Derby and Preakness winner and spoil yet another Triple Crown. It's a shame, it really is. He could have been the best one out there Saturday.
