I agree with those that said Firing Line for these reasons:

-2 close losses to Dortmund
-3x Derby winning jockey in Stevens
-decent post
-has the speed to be close to the lead

Whether he has the pedigree for a mile and a quarter is another question. His grandaddy Lion Heart was 2nd to Smarty Jones was he not, but I think his daddy, Line of David finished far back in his Derby, as I recall.
