   1   RP    RP Springboard Mile [KYD]
$400.000   2YO     1m  Dirt      120lbs

Sccj Stables dropped the bomb on ’em in the RP Springboard Mile as Deep State, The Green Cards top selection, closed like a freight train in the OK night and won The Springboard Mile by a quarter length at nearly 25/1 odds.  He got the mile in 1:34.32, making it three in a row since the vet stopped by to change his focus.  My selections ran second and third, making for some very nice pay-outs if you followed our selections…  State Of Fury nosed out Loko Motion for the second spot, then it was a head to Peace Pipe in fourth and another nose to Velocicoaster in fifth.  Seven lengths covered the field of twelve. 

Deep State is a 2yo gray gelded son of Class Edge – Moon Flowers, by Moonlight Mile, and he was bred by his owner Sccj Stables, in Fla.  Since being gelded, he has won all three of his starts and looks to be a horse to be watched on the TC Trail.  That is three wins from five starts and he now shows $337.800 in earnings.  Congrats to the Connections!
