Can't find any reason to bet against him (or Dortmund).

Speaking as a bettor and not a fan I'm hoping either he or Dortmund draw the 1-3 hole.

Biggest cinch since Big Brown. Wins in a walk over. Horrible win bet at les then 4/1 regardless. I think he is a lot better then these and I agree based on solely his races in afternoon he should be second choice in waging at between 5 and 7/1.

Will try and get him on top with Upstart, Frosted, Danzig Moon, international Star inderneath in tri's supers.

AP will face 8 or less in Preakness and 7 or less in Belmont. Assuming he is healthy he wins TC.

I think he will be overbet and will not be using him. That said, like Dellinger I hope Am Pharoah and/or Dortmund end up on the rail.

Not using him on top. I'm going to let him run a race in the afternoon that matches the accolades he seems to earn in the morning before I drink the Kool-Aid.

I'm a BIG fan of AP, but I think he has his work cut out for him on Saturday.

I would love for him to win convincingly, and head to Elmont with the hype train in full motion.

I'm just skeptical.
