Nyquist had been the -150 favorite throughout the day with Exaggerator getting cut from 3-1 to 5-2 due to the muddy track.

Cherry Wine was another horse considered a solid mudder but it was Exaggerator for whom Gambling911.com had been eyeing the entire week due to his potential to run in the slop.

This is the first time in five races Exaggerator has beaten Nyquist, who suffered his first loss in his ninth overall start.

Stradivari’s odds had been slashed after someone made an $80,000 bet on this horse earlier in the day.
