3yo's have held their own in the BCC. By my count, 7 have won it: Proud Truth ('85), Sunday Silence ('89), Unbridled ('90), AP Indy ('92), Concern ('94), Cat Thief ('99), and Tiznow ('00)


and many 3 year olds have placed in the race(some finishing right behind another 3yo winner). You could say the race is due for another 3yo winner!

You'll find most of the people on here will not be betting Bernardini in any way straight for the win. There is simply zero value. He's been impressive and I expect him to win on Saturday. But I'm not putting a dollar on him in the Classic. A value game, most on here realize that.

Exacta box Bernardini & Sun King, maybe another closer like Perfect Drift. Hope that Lava Man takes a ton of money in the exacta pool and hope that one of em nips Dini at the wire!

He's simply faster than the older horses, and he'll prove it. Toss him in the BCC only if you want to go home looking like you just swallowed some ess aitch eye tee. A total monster.

I won't be tossing him all together, but he won't win the BCC either.
