I wasnt refering to running styles. What I was refering to was the early need for everyone to look for value and pick apart Barbaros preperation or lack of. SNS was probably 2nd or 3rd in the early going as far as odds but with the search for "VALUE" SNS went off favored. Thats the comparison I see in Col John and Big Brown. I fell for the SNS hype and that makes me think it is folish to get off of the most logical winner to get "VALUE".
