Barbaro to win. Seeing him work, you would have had to have been crazy to think the horse wouldn't get a piece of it.

Bluegrass Cat screwed up the whole thing for me. I had Steppenwolfer to finish 2nd... and I figured AP Warrior would be in the mix as well. WRONG on that. LOL

I made bets on:

Sharp Humor
Deputy Glitters
Keyed Entry (yeah, I'm embarassed by that one)

But Sharp Humor was the one I really liked. Still do.

If I remember what I wrote correctly, I had Lawyer Ron as my top choice, then SNS and then Barbaro. Oops.

ON fri I was on BCat and Barbaro. The more I capped I dropped Barbaro and used Sweetnorthern saint by post time. My future was Bcat I made it in the first future thinking I would never se the 12/1 again and coulda got better at post time. Proves that betting the race and not the capping is the important thing.

My two were Sweetnorthernsaint and Steppenwolfer. It was so wide open though that I really had no idea. The TC race that I was the most sure of was the Belmont.
After the Arkansas Derby I said....Steppenwolfer is definitely going to win the Belmont. I was confident he would from that moment until they reached the far turn in the race. I still don't understand why he didn't get up in that race. Oh well.
