Class Still Matters

[vderdak]

Oaklawn Race #7 - Honeybee Stakes Grade 3

#3 Rose to Gold - 5-1 at post time - my bet
#8 Flashy Gray - 2-5 at post time - the favorite

In this race Rose to Gold, the only horse in the race who has won a graded stakes, no other horse has, shows a clear class advantage.

Flashy Gray pounded down to 2-5, optional claiming winner, trained by William Mott, ridden by Mike Smith.

If you factor class into your handicapping and believe class still matters this was a no brainer bet.

#3 Rose to Gold paid $12.60 to win
