I guess everyone uses the term a little differently, which is why I don't quite get the original question of this thread. Every year there are multiple so-called "wise-guy" horses which I take to mean horses who some people like because of something that isn't clearly visible in the PPs. It isn't like there is one designated horse every year.
Sometimes these horses win. Sometimes they don't.
Seems like most years there is one horse that stands out among the rest as a wiseguy horse. I know people were saying Nehro for awhile there, I guess we will see as the day gets closer who it ends up being. I can see MOH being a strong candidate, now that Gomez is aboard.
