Oh yeah? Impressive deduction. This is a thread on worst Derby winners, right? So most people are gonna pick the big longshots that didn't figure, of which, Giacomo is a prime example.
But let me guess, you bet the sh!t out of Giacomo?...
Uh-oh...here we go...

...thus leaving the race at the mercy at the only closer in the race, Giacomo.
His romping half-length victory left no doubt as to who the best horse was.

So, basically, the whole basis of your handicapping theory is the "Tortoise and the Hare" story?
Eeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaa....what's up, doc?
Whoa! You made so much money on Giacomo that now you've become a modern day Ebenezzer Scrooge?
You're so stingy, you won't even give away a "Happy" or a "Merry" or a "Nice"?
I guess I'll leave it to the Ghost of Christmas Future to tell you why Giacomo was the worst Derby winner of the last 20 years...
