Scratches: None

Appears that Cowboy Cal will likely be setting the pace in this one. No doubt he'll try to slow the pace and steal the race wire to wire. But, the explosive move of Justenuffhumor in the Fourstardave Handicap (Grade II) was too much that day and today looks like a repeat to me. Price likely short however.

#1 Justenuffhumor (Win Only)

Good luck everyone!

cowboy cal over the entry, chalk city, could be tough the way the bombers have been coming in but i think cowboy has the back class to bottom out this field
