Opinions on possible bounces aside, doesn't this mean that there are now 5 - or 6 - horses in this field that could conceivably win this if they pair their top?
Some of these six would need a pair-up and some regression from any or all of the other five, depending.
But, does this make the race more bettable? Or less? Personally, I think it makes me unlikely to consider using Roxy or FFC in the top spot, cause it seems a stretch to think that the four fastest from the Derby running here will ALL regress, even if any of the four look like decent bounce candidates.
I'm leaning towards a narrow exacta play, using one of the four fast Derby runners - the one I think is least likely to regress - over ..... (not sure yet).
This is starting to look like a heckuva Preakness!
