Race 4 —————————
$5WP - #2 Garth R.
$2 Trifecta Key: 2 / 1-4-5-7
$2 Exacta: 2 / 1-4-5-7

Why this horse (#2 Garth R.) is being dropped all the way to $17,500 is beyond me. It’s either going to be a blessing or a major flop waiting to happen. Either way, if you’re feeling unsure, just do something cheaper like a $1 Trifecta Part Wheel: 2-7 / 1-4-5 / 2-7 …which costs $6 bucks. I think anyway you go with it, it won’t be too bad. I’ll have to see what kind of odds everyone is getting tomorrow in case I end up being unsure too.  As for now, I’ll probably just stick with this.

Race 2 —————————
$2 Exacta Box: 1-4-7

Race 4 —————————
#5 - Time Squared.
He’s coming off a decent/close G1 race at Keeneland which makes it incredibly hard not to put him in this. Wouldn’t mind doing a $2 Exacta Box 5-4 in this race, though there probably isn’t much value here as both should be fairly high favorites. Nonetheless, that’s what I like.

Race 6 —————————
$2 Exacta Box: 4-7
Take your pick in this field as far as exotics.

Race 8 —————————
#10 Shoebootie

Race 9 —————————
#5 Chic Dancer.
I like what I see here but generally, I’m extremely cautious when a horse like this hasn’t raced since October 2006. Unfortunately, the other horse I like (#1 Sea Siren) also hasn’t raced since December 2006.

Race 10 —————————
$2 Exacta/Trifecta Box: 1-3-8
Too many keys here for my liking. Tough race.
