Best Bet: ODDS ON AMETHYST (9th) Spot Play: ONE OF THE FEW (8th) Race 1 - $50,000 Guaranteed Pick Five Pool Race 4 - $50,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool PICK 5: 2,4,6,7/1,3,5,7/3,8,10/1,5/1,2,5 = $57.60 EARLY PICK 4: 1,5/1,2,5/2,4,6/1,4,7 = $54 LATE PICK 4: 1,4,7/2,3,10/7/1,3,6 = $27 MEET STATS: 138 - 465 / $809.00  BEST BETS: 22 - 45 / $86.90 SPOT PLAYS: 15 - 45 / $150.20 Race 1 (6) SENOR GRANDE looks solid here on the class drop and he should be prominently-placed throughout; top call in the opener. (7) TOMY TERROR was all used up early in a race where several were intent on making front. He was claimed then and he gets a positive driver here so he remains viable. (2) A BOY NAMED SUUZZ was intent on setting a rapid pace for the conditions last time and he paid the price down the lane. That speed try could have primed him for a top effort here, so I'll use him in the Pick 5. (4) PRINCE GIOVANNI was the only one who raced near the front last time who made the board. He is another possibility in a race with several options. Race 2 There was a time when (5) MARQUIS VOLO would dust a group like the one he faces here. I'll give him the nod coming off a sharp qualifier over a track rated 4 seconds slow. (3) BUZZ was the easiest winner last week and he is clearly as sharp as can be right now; using. (1) CHARLIE IS A JOKER always races well in this class and he can't be left out of the Pick 5. (7) YOURE MAJESTIC is another who figures racing in this class and she may try to brush and crush at some point. This is another race with several viable options. Race 3 (10) MAJOR MUSCLE gets some major class relief here and it may be enough to overcome post 10; top call. (3) HEAD TURNING JAG should wake up with a better effort here also facing easier than he has been recently. (8) AMITYVILLE LINDY has the look of one that Hudon can improve sharply as he has done with many unruly types in the past. I'll toss him in the Pick 5. (6) FLYING ISA N drops, but he has missed a month; mixed signals here. Race 4 (1) NINOSCREDIT had no issues transferring his excellent form to the 'A' circuit last time and he should be tough here shooting for five straight wins. (5) JACK RACKHAM seemed to spin his wheels in the snow last time. He can rebound here. (8) WILLEY BITE made a threatening move in the backside then stopped last week. He was one of many that seemed to flounder in the snow. He is another that could rebound here at a price. (6) BADSTORMANYPORT rode a perfect trip to a tote board exploding win last week. A repeat seems unlikely, but he can hit the ticket here. Race 5 (1) GOTAMEETING stopped on the lead racing in the snow last time, but he was re-claimed by his former trainer and he rates a big shot here on a fair track. (2) EL TORERO raced okay when shipping in from London and this isn't the toughest spot. Toss him on multi-race tickets. (5) SHIPPEN OUT ships in off a blowout win when claimed and he has won on this circuit before. He's another that I'll use in the Pick 4 and Pick 5. (9) P L GYRO can pass a few of these late and take a share. Race 6 (6) CATCH THE DREAM drops again after racing evenly in the snow. The last time he raced in a similar class on October 28th he was sent for position near the front and he prevailed. (4) WILD AND CRAZY GUY is in top form and he should be heard from here. (2) LUCK O THE IRISH steps up off a very impressive win and he is worth a close look here. (7) O NARUTAC PERFETTO should be good for a minimum of a minor share here. Race 7 (4) HIGHPOINT CHIP paced a huge mile on the front end in the snow last time, only to be picked off by the pocket-sitter who got the ultimate perfect trip. A similar effort beats these. (1) SKY GUY should be sent here racing for a tag. He could ride the choice's pocket and get a great trip. (7) PLAY IT AGAIN SAM should last longer here on the lead and he could offer some value in the Pick 4. (2) CROCADILE CANYON rode a slowing pace and closer bias to win last week, but he can rally for a small share here. Race 8 (3) ONE OF THE FEW was too far back last time to threaten the winner. If he lays closer here, he should beat these. (10) KENDRAS COCO is in sharp form and she has the early foot to get away well from out there; using. (2) KUIL DEVA is only a one-time winner, but she tries every week and this group seems within her scope; using. (1) STORMONT ROYALTY should lay closer this time leaving from the inside. He's in the mix here. Race 9 (7) ODDS ON AMETHYST is at his very best right now and that makes him awfully tough to beat. I'll ride the wave. (6) MISTER HERBIE has recaptured some of his best form, but notice he was no match for the choice two starts back. (6) IL SOGNO DREAM and (3) WILL TAKE CHARGE finished 3rd and 2nd to the choice last time and they figure to be part of the superfecta here. Race 10 (1) P L IDAHO was insistent on making front last week, but he stopped badly racing on the wet track. He could go much better here and the price will be higher. (3) FIRST CAR also set some big fractions and stopped. He's another that projects to get an easier trip here; using. (6) SOUTHWIND MASIMO fits at this level and he is likely to be an overlay at post time. I'll toss him in the Pick 4. (2) SPEEDLING can sit a trip and rally for a piece of this. (4) KOULTONS ROCKET raced okay here last week and he could leave here. Keep him in mind if he is a big price. [DRF HARNESS NEWSLETTER: Sign Up for the FREE DRF Harness Newsletter.
