Lesson learned from 2010....you don't need to be the Horse of the Year to win the Horse of the Year...you just need to tell enough people you are Horse of the Year to win Horse of the Year. I give Porter credit for learning that.

Blind Luck has to face Twirling Candy and Game on Dude, I believe....not easy, especially Baffert's hoss; who is going in the Woodward?

Probably Flat Out and Tizway.

While not exactly all timers, I'd certainly rather face Twirling Candy and Game on Dude going 10f over poly with BL.

After the Whitney Bond said Tizway was going to the Jockey Club Gold Cup next. He's a horse that needs time between races, so I'll be surprised if he wheels him back in the Woodward.

Oh, I missed that.

Still, Flat Out should easily handle HDG.
