I think it will be VERY Interesting to see what Lost in the Fog goes off at in this spot. I have never had real stong opinions on this horse either way (I don't think he is as good as some say he is, but I also don't think he is as overrated as other people claim). Something tells me that he might actually end up being the smart play in this race.
I think a LOT of people will be trying to beat him here because of the large field and the weight difference and you might end up getting fairly respectable odds for a horse with his record. Hard to say for sure, but depending on the post-time odds it might make sense to key him in exotics and single him in any multi-race bets.
Also....Steve is absolutely right. Winning the Illinois Derby and running 2nd in the Preakness is not all that shabby.
