Today's live blog

Today's live blog won't begin before the first race, as I said yesterday. I'll start it up shortly before the first Thoroughbred race, which is Race 4, set for 1:53 p.m. CT. Sorry for any confusion.

My picks for the Quarter Horse stakes:

Race 1: 4-3-9

Race 2: 8-10-2

Race 3: 1-2-7

See you back here in a few hours!
