Next Best: #6 Flashy American 5-1 5th
8th: Razorback (G3), 4+, 8.5f (P4, P3)
Best stake of the day anywhere with maddeningly well-matched group. Frank Mirahmadi scoffed at my suggestion of Illini interloper being a danger, but Swearingen gelding SCR was game in Essex try and may have same potential to juice exotics here. Issue will be tabbing right partners for the play because all 6 of the other participants can finish anywhere in the pay slots..
