If Smooth Air is a pretender.....so is Big Brown. He chased that "monster" all around the Gulfstream course.

Steve Davidowitz says contender - mentions including him in his Derby Super and other exotic plays.

At this point, seems to be a definite include in the exotics based on his fitness level alone (and I might key him in the three bottom spots for the super), but I have doubts about whether he can win. I might upgrade him if there's good work reports from the Downs.

He had a very good trip and didn't have to send hard from the 12 hole and still got totally smoked.

Someone had to run 2nd.

No one was beating Big Brown that day.....but the Kenucky Derby, that's another story. If he puts in another effort like that, my hat's off to him...but at 4-1 or less with only three lifetime starts.....I'll let him beat me.

I have a $100 future wager from Pool 1 that will pay me $16,030. If anyone wants to buy it from me, let me know. I am willing to sell.
