He is just simply too fast for the rest of these.

If there is a speed duel going on (which there probably will be), Big Brown will be the last one stopping out of the pace group IMO.

but he'd still be stopping, even if he was last-which i don't think is a given.

Good chance that he stops late enough that he still hits the board, though. This is all speculation and I'll take my chances against Big Brown, but he is definitely the cream of this 3-year old group so far. I'm with you in that I almost hope he doesn't win because I'd hate to see people taking the 'fewer preps' approach, but he's definitely a nice colt.
