From Forbes.com: "He was Aidan O’Brien’s Derby horse, shipping to the US after a breathtaking 18 1/2-length win in the UAE Derby in Dubai. He ran for the first time in Louisville on the first Saturday in May, finishing last on a sloppy track, but nonetheless, O’Brien persisted, shipping Mendelssohn back to the U.S. three times: to run third in the Grade 3 Dwyer at Belmont Park; second in the Grade 1 Travers at Saratoga; and third in the Grade 1 Jockey Club Gold Cup back at Belmont. Known for his incessant vocalizing during training and before the races, this $3 million purchase is a half-brother to the multiple champion Beholder, and has earned $2.3 million in his 11 lifetime races."
Mendelssohn is not a mudder. While there is no rain in the forecast for Saturday's big race, this week's rain has been soaking the track.
“The drainage is second-to-none here,” O’Brien said, “and it’s better to be raining today than tomorrow. If there’s any track in the world that’s going to drain properly it’s going to be here.”
