Yea, as others have said, Essential Quality is likely the favorite.
I'd guess TLG is close with about 3:1 or so.
He's undefeated. He's already a little overrated and underlayed and he's the cleear Points leader for a supertrainer. California Chrome went off 5:2 his year. It's distantly possible he'll be that low.
Rock Your World
seems likely 2nd choice at around 6.5:1. I wasn't crazy about him, but he has a big fig, and a fairly big following, and a catchy name.
Juggle; Known Agenda, Highly Motivated, Concert Tour, Medina Spirit around that 10:1 or so mark. If one of Baffert's horses work with some jaw-dropping fail-to-tire gallop-out, they could even be lower than 10:1, but as of now this group seems like that next level.
Hot Rod Charlie and Silver Stock maybe after that.
A lot can change with workouts, injuries, hype, steam, etc...
