Im taking Barbaro, I don't think he is even going to be challenged until the Belmont Stakes.

That is why I said it was a fluke. It seemed like the majority of the horses made a poor run. The horse is not good enough to win by the 6 lengths.

Bernardini and Diabolical are longshots that are worth a play. Hemingway's Key is also worth a play in exotics.
