10th: Sam F. Davis (G3), 3yo, 8.5f (P3, DD, Hi-5)
High quality running of this Tampa Bay Derby prequel features an honest pace, at the very least, giving favored McCraken (2-1) good target in his seasonal debut. No Dozing (4-1) may get first run. Tapwrit and State of Honor can impact at square numbers with stalking trips in graded stakes debuts..
Best Value: #1 State of Honor 8-1 3rd
Next Best: #9 No Dozing 4-1 6th
Exotics Use: #8 McCraken 2-1 WON ($5.00)
Super Add: #7 Tapwrit 8-1 2nd
