I haven't capped it yet, and I won't place my wager until I see the horses in the paddock.

At this point though it's hard to go against the jockey and trainer combos and their horses.

Couton has been hot and is on the favorite. Hollendorfer has the Smoke Glacken son and can never be left out of exotics in the big GGF races....and for that matter Alvarado has had a good week, too. Baze teams up with Sadler, looking for a Sadler repeat.

I don't see any longshots upsetting, but I'll be looking for one tomorrow to include.

It does look a nice race for the large exacta $$ wagers one might like to make. The money should be spread around.
