Harrah's Philadelphia: Thursday 6/13 Analysis

Race 1
1 - TERROR O put in a mighty first-over effort from post 9 in his last. Presser-stalker enjoys good form; debuts for Oakes.
4 - UNDERTAKER seeks a third straight win after wiring $12.5k types two back and reaching at this level from an earned pocket. Strong.
3 - ARTACHE HANOVER was a one-paced third at this level last out after closing stoutly at Pocono the month prior. Expect sharper.

Race 2
8 - SODA PUMP lunged from the pocket to just miss veteran Worth The Money As last week. Class relief offsets wide draw.
6 - POSSESSED FASHION was a victim of traffic in his last after showing some ability with tougher two and three back. Easier await.
2 - SILVER REVIEW didn't lack for staying power in his last few races, but struggled to get involved. Inside draw lands him much closer.
Race 3
1 - ROCK THREE TIMES didn't lack for staying power on the rise to this level last week. Pole puts this mid-price player in range.
3 - DREAM OF LUCK worked uncovered into a torturous pace before fading last week. Past lines yielded better late pace; expect better.
4 - CAJON LIGHTNING won at this level three back, and was caught in the thick of a hot pace and traffic last out. Can bounce; mind value.
Race 4
7 - SCOOBY GOO raced twice in April and was a good second on both occasions. Debuts for Cameron off a decent qualifier.
2 - ZEUS PV kicked clear easily in his Gaitway qualifier last week. The first-time starter should have ample for this manageable field.
6 - BIG SAMMY Z earned small cheques in his last three starts, and lifted a bit better at 29-1 last out after circling cover.
Race 5
3 - MR HOUDINI made a stout first-over push and stayed on OK at this level last out. Post relief lifts him the rest of the way.
7 - BROWN BEAR makes his second start of the year after trotting 1:54 while parked the mile. Far easier await on arrival.
8 - FASHION WINNER hit the board in 3 of 6. Needs clear sailing.
4 - CHAS HANOVER rises off an earned first-level win. Form noted.
Race 6
2 - THISGUYISONFIRE closed from the clouds to just miss Casa Palmera a fortnight ago. Post relief makes him a big threat.
5 - SCIROCCO ROB returns to a winning class and course after kicking cover for second against tougher in NJ. Mind value.
4 - DON DREAM won well off a middle move in fifth-level company last week. He rises amid renewed form; ease of that win encourages.
Race 7
5 - ODDS ON CLEARWATER possesses unrivalled late kick in this field, turning in a :27.3 last quarter on debut after exerting to clear.
2 - PONDER DAT held fourth last week after being forced to chase a tough pace on debut. The second-timer shouldn't be taxed as hard.
7 - OUIJA fared well in her two local starts, sustaining wide gains to hit the board both times. Wide draw remains her main hurdle.
Race 8
7 - JACK ROGER did work off cover in his last three, and sustained to take third two levels above this on May 5. Easier await.
1 - FATHER SARDUCCI returns to his last winning level after being caught astern in his last two. Pole puts the presser-stalker in play.
8 - GALLIC BEACH stalked and stayed on to hit the board twice since arriving from Harrington. Post 8 may serve to increase value.
Race 9
2 - ARMAGEDON SEELSTER has been ultra-consistent of late, hitting the ticket in his last four local outings. Back with similar.
3 - SIR JOHN F chased to hit the top four in his last three after wiring fourth-level foes. He can track, press or stalk alike.
5 - MR COOL SEAEYRE N didn't lack for trot a fortnight ago, but just had too much ground to make up. Past chasing efforts encourage.
Race 10
4 - EXPLOSIVE PAIGE chased for second twice in three, including a Stallion Series event. Forgive May 26 noting her first-over push.
6 - ACROSS THE POND hasn't been worse than fourth in her last three races, and she owns consistently the fastest miles on the page.
2 - POCONO HANOVER can benefit from significant post relief after passing tired rivals from astern in his last. He's better when up close.
Race 11
2 - TOUGH MAC was an easy front-end winner at this level three back. He shouldn't have to maintain as fast a pace today.
1 - IZOH pulled the pocket a quarter from home last out to just miss. It was a good bounce-back from a solid recovery for third at 85-1!
4 - WORTH THE MONEY AS lifted late and collared Wisenheimer last week! This fourth-level field shapes up as fairly manageable, it seems.
Race 12
2 - ELYSIUM LINDY was one-paced two back and tired after clearing from post 8 since. Class and post relief both await.
7 - WISENHEIMER almost lasted on the point last out, but was reeled in by veteran Worth The Money As. Horses for courses? Mind value.
1 - WHAT DA MATTER U draws inside after improving to be an even third a fortnight ago. The pole can help her progress all the more.
Race 13
6 - PANAMANIAN HANOVER gained mildly before regressing late in a second-level race last week. Bottoms out; draws better.
2 - BOW TIES N BOURBON passed tired foes from astern to save fourth last week after a better chasing effort two back. Post helps.
7 - DOWNUNDERMATTER left for the pocket, was shuffled mildly, but stayed on well for third last week. Easier yet await this time.
Race 14
3 - BIODETTI HANOVER drew off at first asking on the step up to this level last week. He's enjoyed success locally, to be sure.
7 - DAWN OF GLORY hit the board in her last five tries, most recently giving futile uncovered chase to Biodetti Hanover. They meet again.
1 - YANKEES BEAST won second out, kicking cover and vaulting clear two weeks ago. He can stay on well, but raw speed still must improve.
