2022 Cigar Mile predictions, odds: Horse racing expert reveals picks, best bets for Aqueduct Race Course

Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

Todd Pletcher has won the Cigar Mile a record five times. He's going to send out Grade 1 winner Mind Control in the 2022 Cigars on Saturday at Aqueduct Race Course. Blue Grass Stakes winner Zandon is the favorite in this year's Cigard Mile. Get Her Number and White Abarrio are also favorites. The post time for the one-turn mile race is 3:43 p.m. ET. Gene Menez is a SportsLine writer and a former Sports Illustrated reporter.

Mind Control is second in the odds at 5-2 for the 2022 Cigar Mile at Aqueduct Race Course. Menez is backing Mind Control against the second choice. Mind control has won twice in five starts this year but has only won once without Lasix.

Menez's top pick is a horse who "should appreciate the cutback in distance" and he's sharing which horses to back only at SportsLine.
