First Dude is our prediction as the track length should suit this horse who was second only to Looking At Lucky at the Preakness Stakes, a horse who won't be in the field at the Belmont Stakes. As far as value picks go, 20 to 1 on Calvin Borel is worth a sprinkle as he's a great jockey that could do more than other jockeys could with a lesser horse.
