Best betting value in Race 5

For a straight bet, Maize Loved Laffy is the price play at 20-1. To cover our top pick as well, a $1 exacta box of Tenacious Child and Maize Loved Laffy costs $2.

To chase a bigger payout, use Lady Banker (12-1) 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.
