You have to go back 18 races and 2 years to find a race that Amazombie did NOT finish in the top 3. And he only needs to beat 4 horses in today's 8th.

Nevertheless, I'm taking a shot with South Floyd in the 4th, trying to take advantage of the post-draw scratch down to 5 horses. Normally, 5-horse races are excluded from this contest. 3 of the 5 horses have only run on synthetic. If South Floyd's BSF is solid, I should be okay. I also like that he's coming back in just 2 weeks off his maiden win, while Amazombie hasn't run in over 2 months.

I'm more or less thinking out loud here because 50% of my brain is still shouting, "Take Amazombie you idiot!!"
