fastspeed, you are right on betting strategy, but I don't have too many horses I'm using this year. As for Blue Burner vs. Lusty Latin, BB is a little faster and LL looks about done developing for now, so no matter how they 'look', I would lean towards giving BB more consideration. If I was going to sink A LOT of money into the tri pools (remains to be seen and with a strong favorite I have to wonder), I'd probably have one ticket with LL in the third spot (with maybe 8 others).

MD, on Perfect Drift I have heard several people who really hate Delahoussaye because he doesn't save ground. I don't have a strong opinion on this, but I've heard it enough to wonder. HP
