Lots of ways to look at it from a probability point of view. Looking for that big kill on a favorite at even money is death long term. In other words if you make that kill once, stop. But the tendency is very clearly to put big money down, make a 100% profit, and its party time. Then you look for party time again, and take a smackin. People cant leave that apparently easy money alone for long in this game.

That being said I will have fun watching, not wagering on this race. Imo Street Sense and Nobiz are the capable monsters this year. If you had to pick two horses that have a shot at the TC, I would go with these two.

3 year olds don't run 8 straight. More like 3 and then retirement.
