Play of the Day

It's just a matter of time before the Nebraska Horse Racing Hall of Fame welcomes trainer Marv Johnson as its newest member.

Johnson's accomplishments definitely merit a spot in a hall of honor that needs to continue to be selective in terms of who is admitted. Too many inductees lessen the feat of the accomplishment.

Johnson's horsemanship will be on display today when he saddles Music Legend in today's third race. A narrow runner-up finisher in his previous start, this Kentucky-bred gelding should have little trouble sending Easter weekend fans hopping to the mutuel window to cash in on another winner entered by a trainer whose barn receives a big assist from his wife Christy.

Give us $50 to win.

Starting balance: $1,500

Friday's result: On Zee Rebound won and paid $3.40 for a nice profit on our $50 win ticket.

Current balance:$1,533.70

Monk's Exotic Wager

We'll play the feature race of the day, can't decide between Lovesablumin and Salty Attraction so box them in a $10 exacta box.

Friday's Result: We had two winners and a second, but that doesn't get the job done.

Starting balance: $700.00

Current balance: $698.60
