The race goes off around 10:30 eastern time.

Ward\'s filly is the favorite in a 20 horse field about 3-1 as I write this at 6 am.

I\'m probably not playing the race as 20 horse fields in straight five furlong races allow for too much randomness if you will, but I\'d try to beat Acapulco if I were. No way I\'m taking a favorite in a 20 horse field, much less a 2 year old filly.

These kind of races, if you have a good opinion, well, you can get 20-1 on a top prospect and you shouldn\'t take less than 10-1on anything.

One thing I can tell you, William Haggas\' yard has been red hot at York so far. He has the 9 horse Muthmir, I\'d look that one over.

Dettori rides the 11-sole power who has always been highly regarded, too. Frankie drives me crazy;I can never catch him but if I ever bet against him, he kills me.

The 16 and 18 should love the soft going.
The 16-Mattmu is a stab (25-1) at this shorter trip but classy, and the 18-Meccas Angel is a world class turf sprinter right now at about 10-1-she\'d probably be the one if I had to pick one.

Good luck if you play. Afterwards get your sheets and go for the del Mar Pick Six! 3 million possible today

Incidentally, there\'s bad blood between Jamie Spencer and Ortiz over the running of the Beverly D. Should add a little spice to the Nunthorpe.

Boy, they should be ashamed to put such a card together on the day before the Pacific Classic. California racing is such a joke. I\'ve never seen such cheap broken down horses running at a major track. Good luck with this pick six.
