The Classic has to start with Bernadini/Invasor. If one of them run his race, with the weight allowance and decent post, either is tough.

But, we all remember those that did not run their race in the classic.

Aptitude, I thought, was a lock, he's still running

In 99, there were several nice horses that did not run, Awakamatel, Behrens, General Challenge.

In 2000, Tiznow ran his race again when I thought he would bounce.


The negatives of Bernadini are his lack of rest, his lack of testing in big fields, older horses??? Anything else

Invasor, also looks good has rest, never runs a bad race.

Perhaps Post Position and pace will clear this up some more, but I hate knowing the two favorites are unbeatable. Somebody help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
