The probable second choice is Colonel John. His last four Beyers are:
95
86
93
82
Giacomo's last four Beyers going into the Derby were:
95
93
98
94
So we are looking at a Derby where Giacomo would have likely been the second choice. The same Giacomo that went off at 50-1 in a crop that was depleted by MRLS and generally considered to be slow.
