With the Oaks and Derby behind us, and the big p6 and Super Hi 5 jackpots having been emptied out yesterday, the excitement quotient surely will be down today, even with the "Dress to Impress" theme for the first twilight (post 2:45 ET) card of the meet. Oh well.
Quite a warm day here, with high temps to reach the mid-80s, although they're talking about rain coming tonight and cooler conditions thru the weekend. Fast main, firm turf. Here are the early changes for the 10-race Fri card:
