No, if you back every mount they are poor odds.
Check out what I stated in this thread for yourself.
You can't tell if a horse has gone flat until you're in running and travelling poorly, unless the horse is truly flat at the stables.
To suggest Darren couldn't handle the Valley is ludicrous when the horse never travelled well at any point and was beaten out of sight, yet never held up for one moment.
