You would think, but first time blinks and first time GOAT.
Im using 3 horse. Leaning on 2 and using the other a bit. Im using Baffert and Tony D. I think one of them is the most likely winner.
I'll use the Levine, I love the fact that he shipped and got a work over the track, and Im guessing he is the main speed. Maybe he wont stop.

Fastest by far on the sheets....but I can't get excited about a horse that has sprinted at Finger Lakes. Yet maybe this cast of characters isn't much either.

Two horses exiting the same race at Calder made up about a $800 exacta.

Not that I was getting to the winner, and I really barely looked, but how the hell was Bug Juice the 2:1 favorite?

The linemaker making him 8/1 on the morning line might have fanned the flames. Sheets players seem to trust morning lines more than non-sheets players.

I don't know. I would have guessed Sweet Ducky would have been the favorite off of back to back open company stakes wins in dirt routes.

Hard to believe a race with a $1 million purse and graded stakes status could attract such a horrid field.

The problem with Sweet Ducky was that he was on pokey paces in those two and he was going to need a change of tactics. I doubt that's the reason why they didn't make him favorite.
