If I had to jump off the etched bandwagon I am all over majestic warrior, I don't think you can discount him yet and I'm on el gato malo as well as cowboy cal
Majestic Warrior is also being brought along slowly at Payson by Billy Mott. He has the breeding to get the job done if he stays sound. TJ

you said Pyro is a plodder, plodders do not run 6 furlongs at CD in 1:09 3/5 closing with a rush, nor do they run second at 1 1/16 eating slop all the way around, you would not know a plodder from a champion.
As to his pedigree, being by Pulpit, who finished 4th in his Derby with an injury, both grandsires, A.P. Indy, Belmont and BCC and Wild Again, winner of the first BCC, were Grade 1 winners at 10 furlongs, so I would say his pedigree says he will thrive at 10 furlongs.
As usual, your post is based on your opinion, not the facts.

Here are the conduit mare derived stamina numbers for the winners of the Kentucky Derby since 1972. The lower the number, the more female family stamina influences are assumed
Only 4 winners had a stamina index of 1.00 or higher, the highest being Ferdinand in 1986 (1.19), and the lowest was Thunder Gulch in 1995 (0.44). The average stamina index is 0.79.
