If we're talking the Classic, I'd guess that it would take a multi-horse tag team effort to beat Bernardini... (ala the stunt pulled by Bailey and Solis on Eddington and Rock Hard Ten in the Belmont versus Smarty Jones)...
Early and constant harrassment and urging by Lava Man, Premium Tap, Lawyer Ron, etc.. followed by stalking attacks from Invasor, Brother Derek, Flower Alley, etc.. and late stretch runs from Sun King, Giacomo and Perfect Drift would be the scenario that could beat him.
