The 1 most important angle to playing the turf at the Mountain is trainer stats and 2nd is pedigree. For instance last night in the 3rd race. I liked Cryptolight (9) with trainer W. Martin 1st turf at 25% for a ROI of $4.20, dirt to turf 30% for $3.54. It appeared victory was in hand until he was beaten down the stretch by a son of Pleasant Colony - Pleasant Company at 33-1. Trainer Bret Smith showed a dirt/turf of 25% for $7.25. The exacta paid over $800. So pay close attention to the trainer stats. So looking at the first, the #6 - Siddhartha looks like a good play with a 1st turf of 25% and ROI of $9.60. If I were playing an exacta, the #5 looks playable with Cryptoclearance in her pedigree. My third choice is the #2.
