The $1 Million Southwest Stakes (G3), Oaklawn Park, Race 11, 5:40 p.m.

(3)  Buetane has turned in some sharp sprint efforts for Baffert and seems ready to stretch out effectively. (11) Silent Tactic was second in the Smarty Jones but was hampered by a slow pace. (9) Strategic Risk won the Smarty Jones and has plenty of talent. (2) D’code was a blazing fast debut winner but is a question mark at this distance. Betting strategy: 3 to win. Exacta and trifecta box: 2-3-9-11.
