Invasor was 7-1 in 2006 despite winning the Pimlico Special, Suburban, and Whitney throughout the year.

LAL is the antithesis of Bernardini.

One got an insane amount of hype, the other gets little to no respect.

Invasor in this group would be 7/5.

LaL? Zenyatta will be the equivalent of Bernardini, not him. And let's be real, Bernardini would eat Lookin at Lucky's lunch.

Maybe, but I was going for the unbeatable superhorse bandwagon. Like I said, if she were somehow equal odds as Lookin at Lucky, I'd be all over her in a head-to-head wager.

Got it. Guess it would depend the circumstances between those two. As the Classic looks right now, I would probably lean towards Lucky.

We have no idea how it looks right now. We know of five or six horses pointing to the race. Predicting pace scenarios 2+ months out is futile IMO.

True, but what we know of the 5 or 6 horses makes a difference no? We have 2 real closers, one very fast horse (when ridden that way) a solid mid pack stalker who wins a lot more than he loses. And Richards Kid I guess. Just those few make a pretty fun hypothetical scenario. How else can we bet future odds?
