the 1st key to betting the race is whether or not Lime Rickey is given a low morning line. He isn't a superstar and though I've yet to watch his Alwn1x (thankfully NYRA and Calracing provide this service to the customer
), he hasn't been good enough in the past that you can't play against him at low odds.
With an evenly spread ML I would start leaning toward passing the race. Maybe still look at the video and see if I can narrow it to a group to use in multi-race exotics
A number of interesting horses;
Battle of Hastings, Rescue Squad, Mark S,Straight Story,Final Count are all worth a thorough video review. Any of these could possibly be used with Take The Points.
Take The Points is the one known commodity (from my perspective) who would be prominent on any coverage play designed to beat a low-odds Lime Rickey. Dropping in class here should help him a lot, and his one poor running line (Preakness) will hopefully help his price considering his poor position in that one.
