The weekend was a mixed bag for old Max. He had seven winners on Saturday, but only three on Friday. And the imaginary took a little bit of a hit, dropping to $1,064. We will get some of that back tonight. Let’s start with a $10 exacta box in the third with Europan Union and Thunder’s Fury. And let’s throw another $10 across the board on Aisling in the eighth. Good luck, everyone.
