Fire and Brimstone in the Lewis Memorial

Saturday, February 04, 2012

The G2 Robert B. Lewis Memorial is a two-horse race on paper; the Bob Baffert trained Cash Call Futurity winner Liaison vs. the runnerup in that Grade 1, the Jerry Hollandorfer-trained Rousing Sermon.

The latter was the victim of a much tougher trip and he's been working very aggressively since.

We're taking Rousing Sermon to win the Lewis, and will add the other Baffert entrant, Sky Kingdom, to the exotics mix in addition to the likely favorite, his uncoupled mate.

Running Totals: (1019) 316-202-148 Total Dollar Return: $2,182.40 [win selections only]
