As much as don't like Big Brown, if I was boxing for the Super, I would use him in this type of wager. Bad post, not much experience ect... If he runs at all he could be much the best and blow up your ticket. I will try to beat him but will cover him in large exotic wagers and hope he runs out. By the way, I think Tale of Ekati will plod his way to a lower piece of the ticket.

Respect the toss out but I fear this could be one of those f**cked up Zito Derby's.

I got him ranked 10th out of 20 in my graded selections...so at least he's in the top half.
Your other five are in my top six (got Visionaire 3rd)

Don't box the super. . . you can get way more coverage if you key. . . And to everyone who says to toss Cool Coal Man - beware. . .

More power to you if he wins, but he hasn't looked comfortable in the mornings to me ... I'll let him beat me.

I haven't heard a soul who's been at the Downs this weekend say Cool Coal Man has looked comfortable in the least.
