[c-nsp] Three ISPs - Three Edge Routers - iBGP Mesh

Two of our DC's are about to get their 3rd internet drop. Each ISP connection has its own edge router. HSRP is running facing on the LAN side. Please see https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3496562#3496562 for topology and further discussions. I expect that packets leaving the DC will hit the HSRP active, perform the route lookup and exit via the best path BGP has selected (and/or the best path my PfR setup has installed). Does anyone see any gotcha's with just letting BGP do its thing; no local-pref changing, no path prepending?
