Is it really that hard to imagine? Think about that field...you had Bluegrass Cat whose form really didn't look that great and needed to validate his Derby runner-up finish after anything but an awe-inspiring spring. Sunriver could not have possibly been favored, Steppenwolfer was a plodder and so was Jazil. I didn't bet Bob and John, but I can see why he was favored- the field was awful. His Wood Memorial win was slow, but I think many chalked it up to the wet track that day.

I am a bit of a Stonerside Stable guy because of the hometown connection, but I don't agree that it was staggering to think that he was favored. Too bad Pointgiven1985 is not around anymore, he admitted to betting Bob and John in the Derby AND Belmont.
