i can see arguments for go for gin.
but then, i think war emblem was pretty bad. if that horse didn't get things completely his way, he quit. first or nowhere.

Doesn't make him bad. Just really dumb and immature.

This is really a two horse race between Giacomo and Sea Hero - all other answers are really bad answers.

war emblem either won, or was out of the money completely. it was like he knew if he couldn't win, he wanted to take his toys and go home.
then his post-race career has been nothing but a mess.


it was funny, i had volponi in the espn pick six contest. only race i missed was the turf mile that year.

Then explain his Preakness. He was not loose on the lead; under pressure the whole way.
