The $1M Pennsylvania Derby is one of the highlighted races of the day. In this event, Mr. Ed is betting on #9 GOSGER (4-1 morning line) for the excellent Brendan Walsh barn. The Parx Selection for Race 14 includes a $20 to Win bet on #9 GOSGER and a $5 Exacta Box of 6, 8, 9.

In the $1,000,000 G1 COTILLION STAKES for 3 YO fillies going 1 1/16-mile, the pick is #2 LA CARA (7-2 morning line), a super-seasoned filly with excellent recent work and a retaining under-appreciated NY rider Dylan Davis.
