Breaking down the Race 2 field

Bargain Purchase is the 2-1 morning-line favorite, with Mr Baldy next at 5-2. It is a tightly priced field, which usually means a competitive race.

M. Ferraro sends out 2 runners (College Hunk and Speightful Sam), which tells you the barn thinks the conditions suit.

Among the riders, Jose Baez has the best New York strike rate in our records: 18% wins from 17 mounts.

Forecast: sunny, high of 66°F.

Race 2 betting strategy: where the value is

For a straight bet, College Hunk is the price play at 8-1. To cover our top pick as well, a $1 exacta box of Bargain Purchase and College Hunk costs $2.

To chase a bigger payout, use Kealybug (10-1) underneath in trifectas.

Morning-line odds are the track handicapper’s forecast, not the final price. Pari-mutuel odds move with the money until the gates open.
