12:00 GPW 1st DASSULT MIRAGE (#9, 4-1) debuts for Nicks, who can have them ready to roll first time, is out of a mare who won her second start, plus, he is a half-brother to a couple of debut winners, so he is bred to win early. He may prefer dirt, but one of his debut-winning sibs is a 7-time turf winner, so he could be okay, if it stays on the lawn. – Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

1:32 GPW 4th BAHAMIAN PRINCE (#8, 4-1) got whacked pretty good at the start, and, then, dropped back to last when favored in a pricier non-winners of three on Oct. 3. He drops to a new low here and should be tough to handle, if he gets away cleanly while making his second career start following a layoff. – Randy Goulding | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

2:07 WO 3rd LEAN ON E (#2, 8-1) finished on the outer edges in each of her first two outings vs. $25K maidens. She could come to the forefront in the $10K contest with Wenc back in the saddle. – Ron Gierkink | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

10:27 RP 6th MUCH BETTER (#5, 7-2) was just edged against similar last time and could be sitting on a peak race in the third start of his form cycle. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

10:55 RP 7th SHAHARAZAD (#9, 4-1) is a class play as one who has been plying her trade against steeper. She also has a high percentage trainer-jockey team in her corner in Steve Asmussen and Stewart Elliott. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets

11:23 RP 8th DRC ALL INCLUSIVE (#7, 3-1) finished a half-length behind a quality winner last time and now moves back to the six furlong distance of his most recent win. He also owns the field’s best last-race Beyer Speed Figure. -Mary Rampellini | Get PPs for this race | Bet this race with DRF Bets
