I\'m with you two.  To those who don\'t remember last year\'s numbers, here was Goldencents\' sheet going in:
1.25
6.00
4.00
5.50
5.50
5.50
There were quite a few horses going in with better tops & better patterns.  I tossed him last year. Fortunately, by last November I had a lot more respect for him than I did in May & he was my best bet Breeders\' Cup Weekend.

Jimbo,

I am not great at horse flesh either.  You know I was wondering.........are these derby preps getting no national network coverage?  If not for TVg I would not of seen the santa anita or the wood.  If that is the case then you will get a better price on the fav.  He was certainly visually impressive.  But if not many saw the race.........???  

As for the 3-1 that is pretty close I am guessing.  He will be much more favored than orb.  I will guess 5/2 and hope for 2/1.  What did Big Brown pay?  I would guess he would definitely be shorter than Big Brown.
