The short priced horses I completely disregarded for my exactas and tri's were Mine That Bird as well as Fresian Fire. Longshot I included for my tri's was Terrain. Quick breakdown of my wagers.

Race 10 (Pick 3)
1,3,5 w 1,2 w 13 (RA)

Race 12 (Exacta Box)
13 (RA) w 3 (MM),9 (POTN)

Race 12 (Trifecta)
13 (RA) w 3 (MM),9 (POTN) w 1 (BD),3 (MM),6 (Terrain),7 (PC),9 (POTN)

Race 12 (Win Wager)
3 Musket Man

Most all my tickets surround Rachel Alexandra. Pioneer of the Nile and Musket Man will be my key horses in the exotics. I feel Musket Man had the toughest trip of all in the Derby and still ran on very well. POTN should like a faster surface, second on dirt, and was my derby play.

I feel distance might affect Big Drama but left him in for 3rd in case he hangs on for a piece. I threw in Papa Clem who always seems to be there and should get the right trip. Terrain is my longshot. He should improve upon returning to dirt, 3rd off layoff, and should like the distance.

Musket Man is my backup win wager in case RA can't handle the boys.

Who are you gentlemen going to be playing?

    I generally leave every horse out but one...that's win betting for you.

    I've been looking over some props and matchups for the race, but none look especially appealing so far. Incidentally, Rachel is being offered in the 9/5 range here in Vegas.

    Bird may have been a factor in the Preakness seeing that you didn't hit this superfecta because you left him out of the 2nd spot....lol:drinking:
