I'll make it easy for you.....I don't think you will make money in this year's Derby, whether or not War Pass is 3:2......and whether or not he wins. You make silly comments like you " hope he keeps racking up big figures against nobody " as though there is any truth in that. He dominated Pyro twice last year, and last I checked Pyro is the current KY Derby favorite. If someone wants to say that he was helped by the mud in the BC, I can see the argument there, though I would personally only partially agree. But, in the Champagne he outran a field of fast horses, set a strong pace, and beat Pyro fair and square. Thus, the bottom line is that he earned the big figures he ran, and if you think he did it against " nobody " then I guess Pyro is a nobody as well.
It is two months before the KY Derby. A lot can, and will, happen before the race, and one of those things may be that War Pass shows he will have trouble with the distance and/or that he isn't as good a horse as he showed last year. However, right now, War Pass is the horse to beat and Pyro is the second most accomplished. Someone can say they think this will change, and they may end up being proven correct, but as of now that is the logically defendable situation.

The funny thing is that I find myself agreeing with you more often than not when you actually make an argument instead of cryptic hit-and-run comments.
I'm still not sure why you think that I won't make money on the Derby, and I do think that War Pass will max out at nine furlongs and burn a lot of money in Louisville, but I take no issue with anything you said in your third paragraph.
