RACE ELEVEN TRIP NOTES by The Wizard on Saturday, May 23, 2009

Great ride by Eddie Razo on GIANT OAK, who scores at 5-2. Rated along the rail in mid pack. Swung out at the top of the stretch, and sustained a strong closing rally to just run down longshot NO INFLATION, who chased the loose leader and slow pace set by the 2-1 favorite GOLDEN MEXICO. Wore that one down in deep stretch, but could not hold off a better horse. EL CRESPO picked up the tired pacesetter late, for a no threat third. The rest showed little.
