This sounds bad after he won the year after, but IMO Artie Schiller had no business being the favorite in the Mile at Lone Star in 2004.

The bad fav this year will be whoever is favored in the sprint... Lute or Fab strike would be my guess.

Yes, I checked the BC stats, and it was Araafa (finished 9th) that went off at 3/1. Gorella (finished 7th) was second favorite at 7/2.

I've never been more sure of a favorite losing a race as I was with Rubiano in the 1992 sprint.

What about Riboletta in the '00 Distaff? Left the gate at 2/5 and finished 7th in a 9-horse field. Spain was the winner at about 55/1 (whoo, I would have liked some of that action).

oh, and groovy against very subtle, that had to be the least likely win by a favorite in BC history.

Cuvee from the 12 hole at 8-5 I think, 1st time around 2 turns, and a son of Carson City was a solid toss in '03 as well. He finished last I believe.

Cuvee was coming off two impressive wins if I remember correctly, but he screamed sprinter and I don't think anyone was enthusiastic about him stretching out (Asmussen and Bailey). I don't remember who it was, but I think only one horse in the field had a two turn win. Anyway, Cuvee was last, but he got beat about 100 lengths and walked across the wire. Eric |

Yeah, I thought Henny Hughes was a sure thing. I think I suckered myself into the Bernardini - Discreet Cat hype figuring he could piggyback off their success since the connections were the same. |

Just now saw this Miesques Approval won the Mile. EC ran in the Turf all 3 attempts and never went to post as the favorite. |
