The race is a $32,000-$28,000 claiming race at a mile and an eighth on the turf. It’s sad to see him competing in a claiming race, but perhaps it will enable him to find the winner’s circle.
He has drawn gate four and will be facing eight rivals. Here are the entries:
| Post Position | Horse | Morning Line Odds |
| 1 | Victorian Prince | 20-1 |
| 2 | Red Alert Day | 7-2 |
| 3 | Ridge Dance | 9-2 |
| 4 | Interpatation | 12-1 |
| 5 | Booyah | 12-1 |
| 6 | Hughsey | 8-1 |
| 7 | Control Seeker | 4-1 |
| 8 | Lease of Life | Scratched |
| 9 | No Stadium | 6-1 |
| 10 | Sir Dave | 12-1 |
It’s hard to say whether Interpatation will contend for the win here or not. He has not been running all that well lately, but he has only run in a claiming race once in his entire 64-start career; that being his second start, when he competed in a $75,000 maiden claiming event.
12-1 seems a bit high for a grade I winner in a claiming race, even if that victory came in 2009. To be perfectly honest, I think that Interpatation is worthy of being the favorite and can win this race.
This afternoon, he will be ridden by Alonso Quinonez.
Good luck, Interpatation!
