probably the best betting big race to date this year. With 5 minutes to post I'm a bit surprised that Street Game is the 7/2 fave and that Air Support is 7-1. Just gonna sit back and enjoy. Surprised the board didn't have any thoughts on this race either.

Air support at 6-1 out kicks Banned to get the money. Street Game though he set the pace, at least to me looked a little keyed up and just didn't settle as nicely as he did in the Hill Prince. Fades in the lane to finish 5th. I don't think he can get the 10 furlongs but all in all a very nice race.

i'm blinded by loyalty to only CC Brown runners, as I have been told here several times. But his runner did as much running as anyone in there today at 20-1. happy with the 11.20 show price.

Bet a little win and under a few for exactas and show. I have said before that if public lets Chad go off at big numbers, I'm always going to take a poke. Redboard alert
