This could actually be the best race of the day!

I hear people talking about Proud Accolade as a upsetter, but I see a horse who is hurt.  Why would John V bail on the horse if he could run still.

I haven\'t really studied the race yet, but I have mixed feelings about PA. Maybe he doesn\'t like an off track and his improving form has been hidden by it. Then again maybe he\'s got problems and he\'s going nowhere fast. I think you need a pretty big price to play him though. Even if he\'s been running so poorly because of the off track, that still doesn\'t guarantee that he\'s going to come back on a fast track and run the type of type he\'ll need to win here.

Class,

I think the Riva Ridge is an interesting race and maybe a betting opportunity, depending on how short the odds are on \"Lost in the Fog\", relative to the horse who is the most likely winner.

But only two horses can win this race.  Anything else is a stretch.  

It may be a GREAT two horse race, but that\'s it.  On Thorograph, there are just two candidates and one is much much better, all things considered.
