Race #2 - 2YO Filly Trotters
#7 Honorable Daughter looks tough, but is a 6/5 favorite. Musical Mystery gets no respect at 7-1. I like the #2, Yursa Hanover...

Couldn't take the chalk in the first, but have to eat it in the 2YO filly pacer division and go with Hawaiian Drink...

Wow, going to light up the toteboard. Fox Valley Topaz charges to take the race at the wire over Twist N Clout.

Nice way to start this out. Fox Valley Topaz triggered a $820 Exacta and a $10,000 trifecta. Very nice...

That sucks Herk, the 2 looked like she had a perfect trip and was going to pull away. I just watched the race again and Tetrick started to go to the outside just as Andy Miller started to make the same move. He switched back to the pylon and it opened up like the Red Sea. That's the one thing about that place, so many horses shoot up the pylon that you think that there is a passing lane.

In race 5, I think the TVG boys have it right, in that this race is between Muscle Hill and Explosive Matter. Federal Fix does have a chance, but bad post draw.

Now it gets interesting with Deweycheatumnhowe. I don't know if he will get by Crazed tonight, especially with the throat problems of lately. Don't get me wrong, I want him to win, but I don't know if he is going to have it in him...

I am guessing that the fans either don't know about the throat problem with Dewey, or just don't care, as he is an even-money favorite heading into race.

Important for Horse of the Year. Wishing Dewey the best of luck...

Sad to see him fade to 3rd. Great season, and career, for Deweycheatumnhowe. It is all Somebeachsomewhere's game now for Horse of the Year...

Just put the kids to bed and missed that one- probably a good thing.
