Has to be used.. In a field where only 2-3 have any quantifiable speed, can't ignore..

In a year where everyone claims the 3YO crop is substantially lacking any form a greatness I find it hard not to consider Big Brown the winner in this race. He's shown glimmers of great talent and I'd rather take the unknown angle over horses that have stamped themselves very average. If he's a cut above the 12 hole will not be a problem.

Off a maiden win and an Off the Turf race in the Slop ? Until he shows me h can compete with quality horses on a dry track (and he very well may), I have him as another overhyped horse with connections to New York. We get them every derby season and they are heart and bankbreakers. I like Smooth Air and Fierce Wind.

Is there any room left on the bandwagon, I'd like to get on.
