Everything about the horse. Here is my opinion, while outlandish, I think has some merit.

I personally think he was ridden last time to get 2nd, period. Stutts knew that 2nd got him to the Derby. Riding a horse for 2nd is alot different then 3rd, and there wasn't crap in that race anyways.

good story that will make a good 8 minute piece on ESPN or NBC, but the horse aint hitting the top 6

What pray tell could possibly make you like Anak Nakal more than this horse? Or any other horse running for that matter?? Is it simply because he'll be 50-1 or better most likely??
