#1 EPICO (ML=8/1)


EPICO - A winning percentage like 50 is outstanding for any rider/conditioner tandem. I like that most recent outing on March 27th at Gulfstream Park where he finished first.

Vulnerable Contenders: #2 IRISH GENT (IRE) (ML=7/5), #5 SHOTGUN (ML=5/2), #7 YANKEE DRUMMER (ML=7/2),

IRISH GENT (IRE) - Has been defeated as the chalk back to back. A repeat is probably in store. Can't really play this kind of oft beaten public's top choice. SHOTGUN - I can't play this confirmed non-winner. Gets the assignment executed now and then. This colt registered a speed figure in his last event which probably isn't good enough in today's event. YANKEE DRUMMER - Hard to take this questionable contender at the odds after the result (fourth) in the last affair. This gelding notched a fig in his last event which likely isn't good enough in today's race.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:	Putting our cash on #1 EPICO to win. Have to have odds of at least 1/1 or better though
EXACTA WAGERS:	Pass
TRIFECTA WAGERS:	Skip
SUPERFECTA WAGERS:	Pass
