Giacomo certainly came out of nowhere and Charismatic and War Emblem were big prices too. I actually like Mine That Bird today. I know the wedding/funeral rule, but considering the field, I think 6-1 or so is still good value.
Oh and I don't understand saying Barbaro would've won the Preakness had he not broken down. Bernardini was great that day. I think it's far from "likely" that Barbaro would've beaten him.
