It isn't smoke and mirrors regardless of how the horse runs on Friday. They are training for a 12f race. The Japanese know what they are doing. You don't run 1-2 in the Melbourne cup if you don't know what you are doing. Might not matter though if Big Brown is that good, but Casino Drive will run a big race, basically because he has the 12f pedigree and a great foundation.
