I WAY over thought the race.
On paper the race looked like it was going to have a very fast pace and I should focus on Guarana and Street Band, but since I had seen Serengeti Empress bottom out a field loaded with speed before, I was afraid to toss her, especially from the rail. So I had some SE with the winner too.
With any other speed horse, I might have crushed the exacta and triple. That's the downside of thinking too much sometimes.

Had a $10 exacta box Street Band, Guarana, and Bellefina. Bellefina sheet#s were the best in the field but at SA. I just couldn't toss the horse w/the best numbers at 6-1 odds
