Me either... nice horse! Thank heavens we have something to look forward to in the Derby.

I'm glad to be wrong this time around. I thought the post would beat him.

We have seen everyone and there isn't a 3 yo in the world who would have beaten him today. Assuming he stays healthy, who has a legit chance to beat him? I haven't seen that horse yet. He could "bounce" and win.

Big Brown will have to buck the same trend that Curlin couldn't last year and that no other horse has since 90 years ago. I know I won't bet on it happening.

The competition Curlin faced was also light years better than BB is facing. Not saying you don't have a point but I don't think it's reasonable to toss him based on it.
