As I had pondered, Gun Runner did indeed just coast on through to a finish on Saturday's Classic. I got a full return on my investment in this race and then some (about $13.60), but my betting strategy highlighted an interesting difficulty in handicapping: what if one of the chief favorites in the race has a bad trip and doesn't finish in the money at all? More on this, including a video replay, after the jump.

Wow, can you believe it's been a full YEAR since we were here? And by here, I mean both the Breeders' Cup and me posting a blog entry here. This year has a fair amount of repeat contenders too, which made handicapping this slightly easier. In order of their finish in last year's Classic: Arrogate (1st), War Story (8th), and Win the Space (DNF). Other familiar names include Mubtaahij, Gun Runner, Collected, and Gunnevera. Can Arrogate pull it off again? We'll find out at post tonight (about 8:30pm EST); more detailed analysis after the jump!
