I've already lost money on Aikenite this year.

I'm a sucker for those Dogwood Stables runners.

I think Aikenite is a plodder tomorrow though.

Jackson Bend holds the key to the race, with Smith aboard he should set the pace. If not Super Saver has the big ad here.

I like Jackson for a piece, but I just don't think he will hold on in that last furlong. He will control the pace inside though, and it doesn't look as if there is going to be a lot of pressure. Aikenite is another that I'm interested in.

Love jackson Bend to get in the money. SS/JB exacta

I am kinda leaning towards Jackson myself. I haven't made a final decision yet though. I will in a few hours though. It will depend on how much Derby took out of him. He may not win, but I do think he will be in the $$$.

Unless something weird happens, the pace in this race is non-existent.

I don't like Jackson at all today, however he is the single most important horse in the field. What he does or doesn't do today will impact the race significantly for Aikenite, LAL and the future Belmont winner Pleasant Prince.

OK, I am going to Paddy.

Paddy/Jackson/Super Saver tri box.

Dark horse pick that I would put with my super? Caracortado
