BC singles

[banter]

I've enjoyed reading about everyone's longshot picks to run well in the BC, but what about the locks?

What horses do you intend to use as singles in a DD, P3, P4, or P6?

Are most of you looking at Bernardini as your single?

The 2004 BC was a walk in the park compared to this year and last because bettors could confidently single five of the eight races with Ghostzapper, Ouija Board, Speightstown, Sweet Catomine, and Ashado.

And although bettors couldn't count on much last year, at least they knew that St. Liam could be reasonably singled in the Classic and that a Euro invader stood to win the Turf.

But this year's BC card is looking very tough, especially for those who don't want to go with chalk in the Classic. Still, I don't see much of an alternative; at the end of the day, no doubt a lot of bettors are going to depend on Bernardini as their "get-out" horse. Dollars to doughnuts his odds will be bet down to nothing.
