If you're just in it for the rooting interest and not to make money then there's no reason to get too complicated. But, there are definitely better ways to play Big Brown than to bet him to win.
It seemed like Borel implored the same strategy with Denis that he did with Street Sense. Coming from way back and then riding the rail to pass all but two. I have no interest of picking Denis over Big Brown.

Please don't anyone egg me for this but I do not know what an Exacta is? Can you explain the bet? I'm kinda wet. Sorry.
