I'm against Slade in the seventh. I count all of one good race he's run outside of the Wild Wild West (DEL), and with the race basically starting on the turn in MED miles, he's going to be wide at least once unless he drops back early. I think he'll be much shorter than 5-2 at post time, and prefer Value Driver and Broad Acres. Bonding worries me a little bit, but I think he's got a lot of speed to deal with up front.
Glad you pointed out the 15% takeout on the Pick 4, as it's something that I'll be putting a lot of effort into this meet.
