Sorry MO, I was not clear.
I bought the special was one thought. Then the comments that I found interesting from JB were the ones he made in a post on this board about this derby having less contenders than most recent ones and there be several horses to play against that will take money.
There were no comments in the special, just figures.
As for Street Sense. You will be betting him off the BC Juvenile race only, IMO. Whose race in the Tampa Bay Derby did you like better, his or Any Given Saturday. Borel hugged the rail for every inch of the race, slipped through on th inside and should have won by 4. After Johnny V. got AGS 3 wide in the first turn and 4 wide in the second, he was digging back in and went by SS in the stride after the wire. SS race in the Bluegrass was worse than AGS race in the Wood as well. AGS has the nice "2" last year against a top quality horse and gets 4 weeks into this race. He runs a "0" and if GG gets him a trip, he can win at 12-1.
5-1 on SS is not value IMO.
