Yeah, good thinking.....I just have a feeling that if BERNARDINI crushes his rivals in the stretch, which is certainly foreseeable, then those types of races usually set up for a clunker to come in and complete the exacta because many horses will have had their heart broken by Bernardini in that scenario - and that Churchill Downs stretch is a LOOONG stretch to finish down if you are heartbroken with Bernardini running away from you at the top of the lane....that was the thought process behind that....
