Best Value: Race 9 #8 Guilty 20/1 - Total stab here but it was either this or Catch a Wave on a card I don't love so ill take a swing...I do think King Puck is a very likely winner and also respect Light Fantastic...that said I don't know that either are overwhelmingly scary...Guilty will be a huge price and us clearly bred to love the turf. Working at Finger Lakes so who really knows, and especially without any works that really jump off the page...I don't know that Barrow has ever won a turf race but that should just add to the price as I doubt he's had many bred like this and hasn't tried a ton...what I do know from my time living out near Finger Lakes and paying some mild attention to the track at times is that Barrow can send them out ready to fire first out, particularly young horses in sprints. Again, a total stab but should be a huge number at least.
Good luck. I’ve got both of those horses in my very small Pick 5 (keying Talkin in Cursive and Crystal Quest in the first two legs so I’ll probably be out early.) but if not, I’d love to see these horses in the winner’s circle!

Santana has been great in turf sprints so far this meet. I don’t have the numbers in hand to back that up but it feels that way.
