Provided neither connections are going to change tactics in the Derby, I see War Pass and Big Brown as being one dimensional. Both are also very fast. They could settle into a rhythm, which can happen when there are two horses on the lead as opposed to a battle, but so far neither have shown an ability to do that with another horse alongside of them. So if they do settle down a bit, then a horse like Recapturetheglory becomes a pace factor with their stated of intentions of going to the front.

But in the end, I just can't see Big Brown and War Pass on the front-end going :47 seconds to the half.
