Can we choose the Derby Superfecta?

Anyway....here are the three different ways I view this race.....when tallying up your consensus, please only score the one you feel best describes the category you're looking for.

Most Likely Winner of race:
Curlin
Any Given Saturday
Hard Spun
Nobiz Like Shobiz.

The straight Superfecta I would play from a betting value standpoint:
Any Given Saturday
Curlin
Street Sense
Sam P.

The Superfecta that I believe is most likely to come in:

Curlin
Any Given Saturday
Street Sense
Nobiz Like Shobiz

The only problem with your post is that usually the superfecta/board is sprinkled with different types of runners. If you sprinkle some closers in here, I think you have it about right. If Curlin does win, I dont see AGS and NoBiz also hanging on for a piece, I think they will succumb. While Ss is a closer of a sort, I am thinking more like Tiago and Circular Quay will mix in w/ Curlin or Hard Spun for the super..

On the other hand, I don't think the presence of a closer at the line is necessarily mandated, since a win by Curlin doesn't necessarily mean a super fast pace. Therefore, I largely agree with Drugs. And while I don't disagree with Drugs' "value" super pick, I think that any super you get right will be "value". Beyond the dreams of Midas.

Curlin
AGS
Street Sense
Hard Spun
