I guess Tiago's this years version of what people call "the wiseguy horse" -- but, I never really "got" that term anyway....so I don't know.
If I had to take a horse out of the Santa Anita Derby---it would most certainly be Sam P. --- I felt he got very rank in blinkers for the first time in the SA Derby, he's as one-paced as they come--and Ramon isn't going to move too soon....he can round out a superfecta for sure.

Yeah I guess with Chelokee not in, Tiago's getting the attention. Given all the talk I'd assumed Zanjero would get more of a 'wiseguy horse' label but he's still a long price. Didn't Fusaichi Pegasus do the almost no starts at 2 thing and total races thing similarly to Tiago?
I kinda enjoy Sam P. for his Cat Thief/Affirmed relations. The thing is I feel like I've heard about him more than noticed him even though I've watched races with him in it. Visually it must not've popped to me but I might go back and watch them again.
