Race 2
(2) FOX VALLEY VETO four-year-old has a big brush and just needs a smooth trip. (4) MASTER OF EXCUSES has been racing better than his lines indicate and could hit the ticket at a price. (1) ANTS INER PANTS mare has the ability to beat this field but doesn't seem to be on her 'A' game; use underneath.
Race 3
(4) ROCKSTARZ ROSETTE nice looking filly pacer was intentionally taken off the gate last out before showing a nice burst late. If the 3-year-old has her nose on the gate she's the horse to beat. (1) FRONTIER SARAH filly was sneaky sharp last out full of pace late; threat. (3) THE DOE filly picks up a good driver change and could be ready for a better effort.
Race 4
(1) WINDSUN MONTECARLO well bred mare owns some back class and looks to be back in racing shape after a layoff. (7) YOUROLDLOV-ELETTER mare came up empty last out after some nice efforts. If the pacer can revert back two her prior form she can be close. (3) KIMBERLY R has paced two good miles in the row but rarely wins.
Race 5
(6) PERCHED ON TOP mare will offer a big price and is capable of sweeping past late with a good setup. (4) MISSIANA will look to make it three straight wins at the track; threat. (5) LYRICS FALL filly has some pedigree, adds lasix for the second time, and was the driver's choice.
Race 6
(5) SAINT SIMEON doesn't look best on paper but could be ready for a good effort for capable connections. The trotter has shown big-time ability when right. (3) MUSCULAR YANKEE four-year-old is getting better with every start and is one of few contenders in the race. (7) HOT ROD RILEY MAE takes a significant drop in class and will be used aggressively.
Race 7
(7) PRETTY PLACE mare has burned cash in two straight but finds a really soft spot. (5) PARKLANE SPARKLE well bred mare is facing tougher but does have some upside. (8) FOX VALLEY SHIVER is very inconsistent from week to week but could hit the ticket with a good effort.
Race 8
(5) MIZMEALILBIT mare makes her first start for new connections and could show improvement. (9) MIRIAM'S JET scored a victory last out at a price and could have more to offer. (3) ONE JAZZY LADY mare has flashed some ability but could need a start off a layoff.
Race 9
(4) MAYFAIR SOPHIE mare went a really nice effort last out from off the pace. She should offer a nice price and can win if she stays trotting. (5) REPEAT YOUR ABC'S has lacked pop late in the mile; command a price. (1) VIPER BLUE CHIP gelding has beaten much better but comes off a layoff.
Race 10
(5) DOC TELLADAY was really good last out closing from a tough spot. (3) CD'S IDEAL gelding is just now back in racing shape and is capable. (7) JUSTLIVINTHEDREAM was sharp a few starts ago but has not won in a long time; command a price.
