    Wide-open race for sure. Have to wait and see the odds in this one.

    I think I'm gonna tie #3 and #10 together on this race in an exacta box. I agree with SS's comments above. This looks wide open. Honestly, I think the quality in this race is a little down this year. The #10 is an absolute wildcard in this one. Can anyone say "Bernardini"? It looks to me that an astute handicapper could make some jack on this race.

    Going to take a shot with longshot No. 1 Court the King. Horse has only run 3 times and made a nice move at BM last out before flattening out in deep stretch. Will play with likely favorite No. 5 Liquidity.

    When a race is tough like this a good question always is---

    "Who would you bet to show"?

    The DRF said Court the King bled last race, but he raced with Lasix. Not sure how that works. Do they give him a bigger dose this time?

    Well, as I said, there was some money to be made in this race. Unfortunately, I had the wrong horse. Nice ride by Smith.

    That's one I wouldn't have played with monopoly money. Horse had never won a race on his own before today. Easy to shrug this one off.
