Race 2
(6) LC'SNMOTION went a really nice effort in the slop last out and could have more to offer second start back. (2) BI POLAR ROSE filly had broken equipment in her first start of the year. The 3-year-old gets a much better post and should be tighter. (1) DIVENELY FLOOZY gets the best post off a nice victory; threat.
Race 3
(5) FRISKIE FLICKER mare makes her first start for new connections and will look to make it four wins in a row. (6) PARK LANE CRYSTAL got a rare victory last out and has the ability to pace a fast mile in a field with few contenders. (3) WESTERN BOUDOIR gets sent out for a low percentage trainer but has been competitive at this level.
Race 4
In a tough race to gauge (3) BULL INVESTOR didn't get over the sloppy track the best but should be much sharper in his second lifetime start. (8) MIDNIGHT INTERLUDE has yet to win in nine starts but has been knocking on the door. (6) BB WHISTLE mare has flashed a decent burst of speed and finds a field full of question marks.
Race 5
(8) SOUTHWIND SCORPION will offer a big price and just needs a good setup to hit the ticket at a price. (4) CAMWISER paced a big mile last out and looks to be in line for a good trip up close. (7) MONOPOLY MAN will look to make it three straight wins at this level.
Race 6
(5) SPORTY PROJECT picks up a good driver change and should be better on a fast track. (7) MAY THIRD could be one of few threats in the race coming off a big victory against similar. (3) SORRY FOR THE WAIT has been close against better and looks to be improving.
Race 7
(2) OUR MISS LILY showed a big late kick last out and will be much closer turning for home. (5) RYLEIGH'S LILLY went a really nice mile last start being used multiple times; threat. (4) WINGS hasn't had any luck in Indiana and gets sent out for a provisional driver; use caution.
Race 8
(4) PRETTY PLACE mare finds an easy spot to do some damage; big chance. (7) PARKLANE GLITTER gets sent out first start off a layoff for a trainer that has them ready when they hit the track. (9) GET THE TERROR also has some question marks but has more ability when right than most of the field.
Race 9
(5) MY BOY CAL takes a significant drop in competition and owns some back class. (7) CD'S IDEAL owns recent wins at this level; threat. (4) AWESOME ABE just missed making it two straight and has been racing gamely.
Race 10
(6) WANNA BE WENDY will offer a big price in a good betting race. The pacer raced well last start and can threaten with a similar effort. (1) YES INDEEDEE owns a good burst of speed but has lacked stamina late; command a price. (7) JOVANNA needs to be closer turning for home but will sweep past late if the pacing mare gets a good setup.
