And I like that face that AGS has at least bettered it once here as a 3-year-old.
More stupid Derby Data I guess.

Not "stupid Derby Data" at all. Everyone is looking for an angle.
I just don't put too much faith in BSF's. Just me I guess.
There are other things to look for before you lay your dollars down.
Training cycles and track conditions are good places to start. If you have access to the grooms on the backstretch, excercise riders, or honest clockers, you'll be way ahead than Beyers figs. Horses don't read 'em.
If you want to see what a horse is going to do, compare the condition of the surface last run on with the condition on race day, and how the horse trained up to it. Just my humble opinion.
Good racin' luck.
