I'd have to make Mass Media the favorite in this race also. I can't see playing him as the favorite, but I don't feel strongly enough about anyone else to play against him.
I guess Choctaw Nation could be off the board if you want to play exactas leaving him out and they happen to bet him heavily. He's coming off a layoff, probably prefers a route, and Mullins supposedly hasn't been going well (I haven't actually been following the performances of his horses). That seems like enough ways to try to beat a 2nd choice if he goes off that short.
The other thing I noticed is that there's not much speed in this race. If you have a strong opinion on someone getting loose on the lead (other than Mass Media) that might be a decent horse to use in the exacta. Maybe Sinister G or Hasty Kris? Could even be Perfect Moon with blinkers on?
