In addition to making a good case for Uncle Mo to be a bet-against, Beyer made a nice call in isolating Hansen as a pick in the Juvenile.
from Beyer's 11/3 column in DRF:

Hansen, winner of his two starts at Turfway Park, could do it. When he captured the Kentucky Cup Juvenile, he beat negligible competition and earned a moderate speed figure. But he scored his front-running victory after setting a blazing pace that was a full second faster than the half-mile fraction in a Grade 2 stakes race for older males on the same card. Hansen is quick enough to jump out to an uncontested lead in the Juvenile. I’ll bet him in an exacta box with Union Rags and use only the two of them in pick threes.
