I couldn't log onto my account at easybet.com since I only use it once a year to bet on the ponies. But if I had to bet, it would be
WIN Hardspun
PLACE Street Sense
SHOW Flying First Class
It would make more sense to go with Streetsense to win, but hey, stranger things have happened. And I always like to throw in a longshot just because of the payoff. THe track is still fast, but its raining. Well, gotta get this posted so I can watch.
Though a nod to Curlin and King of the Roxy cause you're a pretty horse.
AFTER THE RACE RESULTS
Congrats to Curlin.., Streetsense and Hardspun Showed..you were first for a few lengths, he just let you have your head too soon. So interesting the same three from the Derby just mixed it up. Gotta love the run for the roses next. Note it was also good to to Edgar Prado back after last years tragedy with Barbaro.

The almost sure bet would be to bet Hardspun to show!! have to bet a lot of money, because you only get back about 1.00 for every 2 bet!!
