I agree with you in the 8th with all the speed, my only concern is the the fact that the 1 and 2 holes have won the vast majority of races run at 1 1/16 on dirt with a few going to the 3 hole, but anything out of that is severely compromised on the layout.

Nick, it is a bizarre group in the 10th and I just hope to survive. AC would definitely have a big shot with these.

You're right on with the inside being the place to be in these 1 1/16 races, but I can see Unbridled Kamanchi being just off the pace and sharp off the freshening. Good luck today.

Good Luck, Gus! I get the feeling that a couple of longshots could step up in this sequence and the pk5 can pay nice. I have to take a shot, but I am with you on the 10th race, I am just hoping to get through it as it has me totally confused.
