This year’s BC classic looks pretty competitive and we will try and to duplicate last year’s pick, when we handed out the winner Vino Rosso and the cold deck exacta !!

On paper, there looks to be a fair amount of speed so the pace could be quick, and it might set up for a late runner.

If that is the case and the pace unfolds as anticipated, I will take Tom’s D’Etat. He may be a wise guy horse due to his bad trip in last but I do think he is the horse that might benefit the most from a fast pace. Often, when we are talking about this caliber of horses, trip makes all the difference. He comes into the race off a nice freshening and the trainer won this race 10 years ago with Blame, who beat the famed Zenyatta.

For 2^nd I will go with Improbable who has the best speed figures coming into the race and should get a nice staking trip.

For 3^rd I will go with Tiz the Law who never runs a bad race.

If you are looking to fill out the superfecta with a longshot try Tacitus or Title Ready, both are clunking up late for a share.

So the official picks

4 horse to win

Exacta box 4-8

Good Luck to all!!
