Wayne, Uh, oh, we are in trouble. We both liked Monarchos in the Derby, but now we both like Congaree in the Preakness. What are the odds that two loosers (as my less literate critics often call me) like us will hit two legs of the triple whammy? <g> I like Congaree and Point Given over Monarchos in the exacta. I will worry about Invisible Ink and AP Indy, but not bet on them. Your comment about favorite local jockeys rang a bell. My Mom bets almost entirely on the jock, assuming that the best jockey gets the best offers to ride, which has a strong correlation with truth. Unfortunately, in the Triple Crown and the Breeder's Cup, most flunky butt jockeys are absent. And the locals don't usually stack up well against the nationals. I also have to preach to her that just because she loves Russell Baze at Bay Meadows and Golden Gate is no reason to bet on Tyler Baze at Hollywood. I usually give that sermon right before Tyler brings in a 15 to one shot. <g>
