Maybe Point Given wasn't short. He ran huge numbers in his preps and even if he 'didn't break a sweat', I think they may have taken something out of him. Looking back on last year, how could anyone take such a short price on a horse that really wasn't faster than the others? I bought the hype.
Saarland is in a position to peak in the big race. Others have won off two preps. If Saarland doesn't run well in the Wood you have to wonder, and if he runs well in the Wood it's going to hurt the price. Probably the best thing that could happen is if Saarland moved up a little but didn't win. HP
