Doesn't matter much right now, but if the betting pools were comprised of the top 10% of the shrewdest gamblers (if such a thing exists), I would agree AP might not be favored.
But he will be.
Agree with your points on how he trains and looks. Although I still the presence of Liam's Map, or lack thereof, is a huge factor for AP.
I know he has tracked and gone by but there is a big difference between tracking a "target" like some of the speeds he tracked, versus tracking Liam's map, a big time quality horse. Although that brings to question Pletcher getting a horse to run well on BC day. Liam's map kind of reminds me of quality road and Pletcher got that one to run about 900 feet in his BC Classic....
