Best Bet (3 - 4 / $10.60): SHERIFF COFFEY (8th)
Spot Play: MAJISTIC CAPRICE (7th)
Race 7 - $20,000 Guaranteed Pick Four Pool
Race 1
(1) LONGLIVE ROCKNROLL pacing mare gets sent out for a hot barn against weaker. (6) CHANTILLY LACE was an easy winner at this level last start. (7) NOVEMBER RAIN keeps getting saddled with outside posts but should benefit from being closer this week.
Race 2
(4) LOUS SILVER STAR filly owns multiple wins on the year and will offer the best price of the contenders. (5) TROTTING GRACE adds second-time Lasix coming off a lifetime mark. (2) SUNNY SASHA also scored a nice win last week and has room to improve.
Race 3
(3) ONE MORE TRICK has yet to win on the year but keeps the top driver and showed a decent close last week. (6) JADED TRUTH will offer low value and gets sent out for a low percentage pilot; use caution. (1) TALENTS MARVEL scored a nice victory last week against weaker.
Race 4
(1) WHITE PANTS FEVER has been razor sharp coming back off the layoff. (2) MAUI MAMA was one of the best 2-year-olds in the state last year and looks to be ready off the bench. (6) REIGNING CASSIS doesn't look the best on paper but should offer value underneath.
Race 5
(4) SCHWARBER should be primed for a good effort and will offer a nice price. (5) PICKY PICKY VALOR will look to make it three straight Open wins. (1) LOUS CREDIT REPORT has hit the board twice at this level.
Race 6
(3) BIG EXPENSE will probably try and go to the top early; big chance. (7) ALL ABOUT COWBOYS when right is probably the fastest trotter in the field. (4) BANDS HOUDINI was in the mix last week against similar.
Race 7
In a wide open race, (9) MAJISTIC CAPRICE needs to find a way into the race but has been sharp in two straight. (8) CRUZEN CASSI beat the top choice a few back and is versatile. (2) DON'T BE CHEEKY gelding shows breaks in two straight but would be a major player if he stayed trotting.
Race 8
(9) SHERIFF COFFEY finally broke out of the slump last week with an impressive victory. A repeat of that effort makes it two straight. (8) SPECIAL SAUCE has burned cash in two straight; use caution. (4) MR TEDDY had no chance last week but faces much weaker.
Race 9
(7) ICY IYQ set a lifetime mark last week and looks to offer another good price. (2) MOCKING ROBIN lightly raced mare has lots of upside in a field full of question marks. (8) OVER SPEEDING kicked home nicely last week against similar.
Race 10
(9) FOX VALLEY MAYA will offer a huge price and had some sneaky late pace last week. (1) COWGIRL TOO draws the best with the top driver. (8) PRETTYFACEUGLYWAYS has room to improve second start out for a new barn.
