Default My 2 cents on the 9th

Thanks for opening this up. It's fun to see everyones opinion on a race and exchange ideas.

As Bigs said, alot of speed here and begs the question why so many are turning to turf routes when they have made their short career going shorter. Either the trainer/jockey has seen something or they are desperate.

Allie's Event is obvious and could win but will most likely not be good value.

For me, Pampered King ought to be just as good if not better but it bothers me that Motion has had three runners and none have hit the board.

That leaves me with This Is My Game who has been working out super since coming South. With a 30%+ jocket/trainer combination I think you'll get 3/1 or better.

For a long shot at one of the sprinters, I'd take #1 Scottish Mystery. The only horse to have a trip over the Tampa surface even though it was dirt, I like the lat rce a little. I see it 5-1-7-2
