Race 7
RIVIERA invades from Michigan and she's been here before. The 1:51 winner at this track last year was fourth against FFA mare Royal Cee Cee N when last seen here in December; chance in wide open race to kick off the Pick 4. GIVEITTOEMSTAIGHT makes her third start back for Herrera; another that has beaten better than these previously and can't be discounted. DOCDOR LIBBY showed speed in her most recent before getting shuffled out of it; figures. ODDS ON AVENTURE makes her second start up north following her winter in Florida.

Race 8
CHANGED IT ALL broke last out while in the midst of a nice-looking move. It was only her first start back and she raced against some of the sports best freshman trotting fillies last year; can be given another chance. It was hard to see the most recent mile from SOUTH JERSEY BUGSY coming and I'm curious to see if she can do it again. Obviously any repeat of that would be good enough against this slightly better field. CHULA qualified two back against a decent one at the Meadowlands and then broke at Pocono; makes second start for new barn.
Race 9
ENDURING DELIGHT exits a long uncovered try from last week where she just missed in 1:53; disappointed that day at 60-cents on the dollar but still warrants consideration. SOMSTREETSOMWHERE makes her 3-year-old debut today and looks to have a very promising sophomore campaign ahead. Can she go with these older mares at first asking? FOUR STARZZZ GIRL chased a classy one in her qualifier; raced in some fast winter miles at Dover. AUTUMN MAGIC will take action on the drop but she was clearly short in her most recent.
Race 10
MARIE'S Z TAM remains nearly perfect since the switch from Lachance to Herrera, with this one's only loss being to the great Krispy Apple two back. Has post edge on key rival. MONOCHROMATIC never faced an anxious moment in the edition of this race last out; an obvious contender in razor sharp form. MAJOR LOOK makes her first start as an aged mare off two qualifiers; will offer a price. OOH BAD SHARK had late pace to offer last week.
