The 4th race is a brain cruncher. Do these top trainers usually show up?

Thoughts from the experts???

More often than not, no. IF they (Motion & Clemente) thought their horses had some talent, they'd run 'em in Miami. They usually ship up to Tampa, get crushed at the windows and get beat. You do get the occaisional ones that blow them away, but I tend to play against. Stakes races not included, when they show up for those, they win.

At first glance (I haven't checked pedigrees or replays yet), I am leaning towards the 7 & 8. The 7 will be the second or third choice and the 8 should be fairly juicy.

You notice #10 State Treasure in that race is 3/4 to both Alumni Hall and Secret Status? Blinks coming off...getting her on the weeds for the first time AND Velez is up
