Two years in a row where the Travers favorite finished 12th in the Kentucky Derby.

This Travers is as easy as I can remember. No one but Alpha or Neck n Neck can win this race. Everyone else just stinks. And that's including my man Bobs horse.

Race 8
Is Battle Hardened a live price or a trap in the 8th? He is 15-1ML, but feels like he will be around 6-1 at post time. Eddie K has great stats first time turf and dirt to turf. There is no speed in this race at all. He figures to be right up on the lead. Looking for some opinions on this race and this horse.

Could the NBC coverage of the Travers finish have been any worse? Did they record it from the nosebleed section? I needed a magnifying glass to see whose nose was where. Would've been nice to watch the dead heat happen. Even in the replays, I'm not sure what they're trying to do. Generate excitement by showing everybody else in the field at the finish? Close finish = close up.
