I agree who is going to get it, but I think Chrome has been the better horse and was the better horse on Saturday.
Bayern's 3 biggest wins have come with some combination of a biased track, loose soft lead, or very good racing luck. (usually more than one). But since I don't think voters should (or do) think in terms of how trips impact results and figures, it won't matter.
(It's 2-1 Bayern head to head, he won the big dance, but offsetting that is Chrome has a 3-2 edge in Grade 1s).
