And the 2004 Yankees beat the Red Sox three in a row before losing the next four. One of those races was as a 2 yo first time starter, another a wide trip in the Juvenile, a 7F sprint where Nyquist should excel if pedigree still means anything, and a closing second after having to check in the Derby.
I think Exaggerator has a strong chance here and will bet accordingly but a Nyquist victory would provide massive tote potential from the Belmont should he falter like Chrome.
