Cant bet the race because Creative Cause is too tough and not sure if he is cranked up yet or not. Of the others, I'd look at the 4 SmokinG who is a Smoke Glacken racing on dirt for the first time, which he should like.

EDIT - oops 4 is scratched! Have to pass, odds are going to be way too low on CC

 

[oldmanTED]

Appears that there should be a pretty fair pace out of the chute in this one. Likely early pacesetter will be American Act with Let's Get Crackin, Drill, and Creative Cause all sitting in the stalking position. Creative Cause may be ready, however, 7 furlongs might not be the best distance for him. Drill has had high expectations but hasn't delivered since the last summer. He should be in a great stalking position and may win. However, I'm going to play the one coming out of the same race as Drill, beat him while chasing fast fractions and may be laying second behind the pacesetter.

#1 Let's Get Crackin (Across The Board)

Good luck everyone!
