Dry track, I go about three- or four-deep. Wet track, I single War Pass in the Pick Four and maybe hedge in a Pick Three.

This is after a cursory glance at the card though. Once I get the TG numbers, I'm gonna do a write-up of the stakes and see what jumps out at me.

Texas Wildcutter with a bigtime jock improvement. Just seeing the trouble line last out makes my blood boil.

Oh..you too? Maybe this time the jock will keep riding the horse all the way to the wire?

Outside of War Pass, I'll be interested in seeing how Texas Wildcatter, Court Vison and Tale Of Ekati figure into this mess. IMO this shapes up to be one of the more intriguing races of the campaign.

Maybe I'm naive in thinking so, but isn't Inner Light in there just to run with War Pass? He has the exact same ownership (IEAH AND WinStar) and really has little chance to win the race outright. It's also awfully precarious that they put Chucky Lopez on him. That means he will most likely be gunned, if Chucky can get him out of the gate.

I'm also under the assumption that InNer Light was entered to ensure there is a quick pace and that War Pass does not get an uncontested lead. C Lo pretty much seals the deal as he's going to ride like a bat out of hell.

Nite Light must think he's sprinting by only being in a 9 furlong race instead of the insane distances he specializes in.
