Derby Thoughts - Animal Kingdom going forward; Mo

[PatCummings]

I thought I had heard Flay say Animal Kingdom would win the Triple Crown, but couldn't find confirmation...so if someone says it was for sure Soldat, so be it.

I did like his general logic, however, that because of the general lack of uber-quality, it might be easier to pull it off.

Yeah, I heard the interview on Versus where he said Soldat would win the Triple Crown...guess he knows as much as the rest of us.

Nice line..

Again, his job is to project probable odds based on the public's betting not his views.
