In the derby he was running against 19 others coming out of the 20 hole, which only 1 horse ever won from. There were also other horses in the race that showed success that could have competed with BB. He was very lightly raced and could have regressed in that race. He defied odds and won. Tomorrow you will see 11 mules running against him. There is really very very limited if any talent in the 3 yr old crop other than BB and none of them are running tomorrow besides BB. Picking a horse to win in the derby that is 5-2 coming out of the 20 hole just does not make betting sense, however you should have protected your tri's,supers, etc. with him in it. Most of the people will pick BB to win tomorrow, but will not bet that race unless included with the pick 3,4,6. Most people actually bet the derby and tossed BB based on the odds. If he even just jogs well tom he will win going away, however I will not bet the race. My 2 cents
