You know, an obvious favorite, I mean, the morning line has a horse named Renegade, trained by Todd Fletcher, who's pretty good, but he doesn't look any different from anybody else.

I mean, I've got a selection in the race that I've...

Yeah, well, let's talk about further ado, because that's the horse I'm going to bet.

He ran...

Certainly the best single race by any horse in the field.

I mean, the bluegrass stakes at Keeneland has historically been the most important prep for the Kentucky Derby.

And when he ran in it a month ago, it was just a jaw-dropping race.

performance.

I mean, he started on the final turn, he started to pull away from the field like he was going to be in another county.

And the tracker announcer, as he opened up about an eight-link lead, exclaimed something like, we've seen this before.

Well, it was last fall at Keeneland.

He had won a race there by 20 links.

And that's not something he does all the time, but he's got the capability to...

to run a monster race, and he's got a lot of other stuff going for him.

You know, Brandon Cox, who is his trainer, may not, for the general public, have the visibility of guys like Bob Baffert and Todd Fletcher, but all he does is win.

When I'm betting on races, particularly in Kentucky, if Cox is it,

I'm just always scared of Cox horses.

He wins at a terrific percentage.

He's just an extremely competent trainer, and his horse is just fire.

I mean, his overall winning percentage.
