I happen to agree with you that he's interesting. Whether or not he beats the favorite is another story. Obviously if I thought he would be anywhere close to his ML I would be intrigued. I don't, however, see the race that way. Maybe I'm wrong....but my guess is the betting will reflect his solid chances of winning. Frankly, if it doesn't, I'm guessing we're the ones who are wrong.

I had that exact same thought as I was putting together the list...
though I still think the time off and the fact that those other horses seem to always take money; Sumphin - 3/2, 9/2, 5/2; Romp - 7/5, 2/1, 2/1; and Saint Barr - 4/5, 3/2, 6/5 we might get a solid price...interestingly, with all of the talk about DTM being the obvious favorite, he is almost never bet as he's only been favored once in his last 12 races, and that was as part of an entry...
