On August 12th at Woodbine in the 6th race (1M1 / 16 | Tapeta), The Seagram Cup (Grade III), a $ 20 Win and Placed bet on No 2 Gigantic Breeze (4/1), a $ 5 Exacta on 2 with 1,3, a $ 2 Trifecta on 2 with 1 with all and 2 with all with 1, as well as a Superfecta on 2 with 1,3 with 1,3 with all and 2 with 1,3 with all with 1,3. Many will say it’s a two-horse race between No 1 Melmich (9/5), winner of this event in 2017 and No 3 Are you kidding Me (8/5) who shows us two victories in three starts this year including two against No 1 Melmich. At first glance, that seems to be the case but No 2 Gigantic Breeze will be on his third start in 2018 and in his last start, he finished at one Melmich’s length and face to face with No 3 Are You Kidding Me. Today, I predict that he will be ready for the ultimate effort and if everything goes well, he will be part of the final photo.
