Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action. 1:10 MTH 3rd JOHNNY OIL (#6, 10-1) drops in class and seems likely to improve at this level, especially if he can rate off the speeds and make one run; that was the strategy the last time he posted a representative Beyer, four back, and if he can work out that same type of trip he has lots of room to improve off his latest, when he wasn't pushed hard late once he was clearly beaten. -Kenny Peck | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 1:17 GP 3rd BROTHER BRAD (#3, 9-2) withstood early duel before succumbing grudgingly, late stages, vs. same kind as he faces in this spot. Nice fit here if avoiding potential pace battle with Russian to Win. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:08 PIM 7th OXANA (#2, 8-1) might have been in too tough two back when facing razor-sharp Glass Ceiling, who returned to win the Grade 3 Barbara Fritchie at Laurel with a 95 Beyer before capturing the Grade 3 Distaff at Aqueduct with a 98. Returned from a short layoff last time and chased an odds-on, gate-to-wire winner over a speed-friendly Aqueduct surface. -Dan Illman | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:13 WO 3rd JOIN THE DANCE (#1, 4-1) comes off two straight front-running tallies, against maidens going long in the fall and vs. N1X rivals going short in her comeback. She looks to be the lone speed in this seven-furlong overnight stakes and could go coast-to-coast under regular rider Wilson. -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 2:29 GP 5th SHADY MCGEE (#5, 12-1) back to grass and back, perhaps, to more suitable distance off a steady series of decent main track breezes. Held own with much much better last summer including recently G1 placed Mira Mission and stakes winning Shifting Sands. -Mike Welsch | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:13 LAD 2nd RAHFEES MAN (#5, 8-1) just likes this dirt and figures a square price. Local works are a plus and this guy draws more outside than most of his recent triess at the Fair Grounds. His regular rider in Nieves is 26% for this barn locally. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:31 LS 3rd SHACKLELACKALACKA (#4, 6-1) moves back into the claiming ranks following the starter allowance appearance and the last time she ran for a tag on the main track she was a winner. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:43 GP 7th LI LI BEAR (#7, 5-1) is a DRF Best Bet (Mike Welsch). | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 3:53 WO 6th TALBEYAH (#6, 8-1) won twice on the grass in England last year after a slow-starting fifth at first asking on synthetics. The well-bred daughter of Lope de Vega has been working right along for Casse, who had a 12% strike rate with foreign shippers adding Lasix during the past five years ($1.08 ROI). -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 4:09 LAD 4th DA GOLD ROOM (#5, 8-1) is a new turf horse. Or is he a new Lasix horse? What if he just loves his new barn? His turf breeding is actually very good. We love how connections find a spot where this guy can't be claimed. We like that they want the grass back to back also. Weight break worked last out and this guy should get an identical trip. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 4:53 PIM 11th MR JEFFERSON (#6, 6-1) ran deceptively well against the likes of Mo Donegal and Zandon in last fall's Remsen at Aqueduct. Held up behind a slow pace, he made a four-wide bid into contention before flattening out. -Dan Illman | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 5:00 WO 8th LINCOLNVILLE BEACH (#6, 6-1) missed the break in both of her outings and was able to close for third in her seasonal bow after taking the long way around. Hernandez picks up the mount on the NY-bred by Keen Ice, the sire of Kentucky Derby winner Rich Strike. -Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 6:35 CBY 2nd BUGLER (#6, 12-1) did debut at Keeneland versus 50K maiden claimers where this gelding did beat a few home that day. Until recently this guy has tried nothing but route races but are we sure that is best? He just missed two back versus restricted foes going 6 furlongs at Turf Paradise and did so with today's jockey. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 7:20 HST 5th COULTERBERRY (#6, 9-2) has not won for a while, but he will be rolling late, should move forward with a race under his belt, and there should be speed coming back to him. The classy 9-year-old reunites with Perez who knows him best and the barn is off to a strong start at the meet. -Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 8:10 CBY 4th ROYALS' LIL DIVA (#7, 10-1) is by a 6% debut sire. Her dam went 45-3-3-6 and earned 27K. Lone sib is 24-5-1-3 and earned 35K. Works are encouraging and we love this outside post with Hernandez up. -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 8:40 CBY 5th SHES GOT THE POWER (#7, 10-1) continues to improve on the grass. She goes second time with new barn and they are 19% on the green and have a flat bet profit. This mare gets good race flow and figures a solid price. Hernandez returns and this mare just tries hard for this jock (4-1-2-0). -Scott Ehlers | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 7:15 YR (Harness) 2nd MUSCLE STAR (#5, 8-1) squeezed into this race by one dollar as he's got $10,640 earned in his last five outings. This should be an easier spot than the $50,000 claimers he's been in, and I'll go with him. – Greg Reinhart | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 7:40 WBS (Harness) 3rd GOOD AND SWEET (#6, 15-1) lacked room for most of the stretch drive last week which probably cost him a position or two. I can see him tripping out near the front tonight and getting the job done. – Garnet Barnsdale | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets 9:30 MED (Harness) 9th RUTHLESS HANOVER (#2, 5-2) qualified back in fine order and lands in a very cozy spot courtesy of the AE condition. Anything close to his best gets the job done. – Derick Giwner | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
