AP Indy retired years ago and I don't see what he did on the track having any factor in this race.

Well have you ever seen an AP Indy relative not like a longer distance? If AP Indy specializes in producing long distance runners and Better than Honour has produced 2 Belmont winners already, odds are Casino Drive's best distance will be longer.

The odds may indeed be in that direction but they don't tell me what SHOULD happen.

He probably won't win the race, but he sure as hell could determine who does. If they send this horse to the lead and nobody goes with him, goodbye. Somebody will go with him though and that somebody will probably not been there at the end.

Victor Espinoza is on this horse and you can be sure come Breeders Cup day that he will try to pull off another War Emblem.

This horse will be overbet though because of Japanese money. I wouldn't be shocked if he is the 4th or 5th choice.
