So what does the public do in the BC (6f)? That's right, made him the chalk. Ran up the track. Easy easy bet against. Not saying HH won't handle the 6f, but your Aldeberan comment made me think of Birdonthewire.
but don't forget that this years vosburgh was 6f not 7...and HH went 6 in his other start this year as well. The biggest question is where he will draw...HH is not good out of the gate...he is usually off slow. That is not a good thing in a race of this caliber @ this distance...if he draws the rail he will be up against it. With that said...those that know me know I'm this horse's biggest fan...i say he wins.
