If all the betting goes to the two AP Indy's, I think Uno Mas might deserve a wager. His first race on the dirt was significantly better than his synthetic efforts, and although the 2f stretchout is a concern, Asmussen is one of the best sprint/route trainers around. Add in the fact that the colt's sire and dam-sire were BOTH two-turn graded stakes winners at age 2, and I don't think the 8f will be a significant problem for him.
Unlike the two favorites, he also has a race over the course, and in my opinion, his performance that day was almost as impressive as Indygo Mountain's race at CD. At 4/1+, I'll play him.
