Race 1 – FM NW1
(7) I’M OVER THE ENJEN three-year-old filly just needs a trouble-free trip for a big piece. (8) GRACE ANN takes a significant drop in competition. (2) SECRET CACHE should be much closer turning for home this week against a very soft bunch. (4) YOURMYHEARTDESIRE fits in with this group and should benefit from the better post this week.
Race 2 - Night of Champions Series- Leg 1 ICF 2-yr-old trotting Fillies
(4) LOUS ABIGAIL gets sent out for proven trotting connections off a nice qualifier. (5) EL OH GOVNER filly appeared to have some decent late trot before the miscue in her debut at the fair track. (3) LAUREN HALL closed ground late in the qualifier. (2) FOX VALLEY LUSH needs to show more.
Race 3 - Night of Champions Series- Leg 1 ICF 2-yr-old trotting Colts
(6) FOX VALLEY KOBE flashed a big burst of speed drawing off nicely in the qualifier. (2) FOX VALLEY QUEST has finished first in both qualifiers; short price. (4) DEEMEMORYMAKER was no match for the top choice in the qualifier but has lots of room for improvement. (1) ON HIGHER GROUND should get a good ground saving trip up close.
Race 4 – Night of Champions Series- Leg 1 ICF 2-yr-old trotting Fillies
(4) BEE SEE looks to be a serious contender in the series after exploding home in the recent qualifier. (1) LOUS FLASHY DANCER picks up a positive driver change and looks to make it four wins in four starts. (3) CELONE HALL picks up the top driver off a winning qualifier. (2) TROPICAL ROSIE was solid in the fair track debut drawing off late.
Race 5 – Night of Champions Series- Leg 1 ICF 2-yr-old trotting Colts

(5) DESERT SHEIK did nothing wrong in the qualifying debut. (2) MR RED THUNDER flashed some early gate speed first time on the track and draws inside. (4) LOUS PAISANO was solid in the qualifier two weeks ago.
Race 6 – NW4 (ICF 5)/30000 Lifetime (ICF 37500)/ 11000 Claimer
(7) CAMERA QUEEN looked ready for a big effort before the early miscue last out. (1) MY UPTOWNE GIRL had some decent late pace last week and draws the rail against a weak and inconsistent bunch. (4) RAZZLEME DAZZLEME looks like the horse to beat on paper, however the 5-year-old mare is just 1 for 19 on the year. (5) FRONTIER RED bumps up a notch looking for three straight.
Race 7 – NW2 (ICF 3)/10000 Lifetime (ICF 125000)/ 9000 Claimer

(4) PERKY PIPSQUEAK just missed kicking home nicely last week. (6) HERECOMESMAGOTTA has been competitive against similar on the year.
Race 8 - FM NW2 (ICF 3)/10000 Lifetime (ICF 12500)/ - $30k GTD Pick 4
(2) VALAR MORGHULIS three-year-old filly adds second-time Lasix picking up a huge driver change against a very soft bunch. (8) WINTER GRAM looks to offer a big price and is a threat should the top choice falter. (1) ASHLEE’S JOY appears to be on the right track and has hit the board in nine straight races. (5) FOX VALLEY LIL KIM has just been racing evenly but does face softer.
Race 9 - NW4 (ICF 5)/30000 Lifetime (ICF 37500)/ 11000 Claimer
(5) FOX VALLEY HIJINX finds a good spot to get back on track and should offer a big price. (2) WAYMORE set a lifetime mark last week drawing off against easier. If the pacer repeats that effort he will be tough to beat. (10) WARRAWEE TOTAL well-bred pacer has been loaded with late pace in two straight wins. (9) YOUMAKEMYHEARTSING also flashed a good burst of speed last start racing gamely.

(1) SUSAN SAGE picks up a big driver change with the best post. (5) RED HOT PACKERETTE has lots of room to move forward second start back off the long layoff. (3) ROBERTS NEW LIFE wasn’t that far off the top choice last week despite being near the back early. (8) FOX VALLEY ZOLA owns a win against similar on the year.
Race 11- NW2 (ICF & FM 3)/12500 Lifetime (ICF & FM 15625)

(1) SHES FIRST CLASS shows good ability and will have a much easier trip this week starting from the inside. (7) SWANEELOU has improved with every start on the year; threat. (4) LOUS SILVER STAR is due for some racing luck any week; fires early.
