Race 1 – Two Year Old Fillies
(5) FOX VALLEY QUEST freshman trotter made an uncharacteristic miscue last week but can bounce back with a good effort. (8) SWAN OF DREAMS owns ability and might be one of few threats to the heavy favorite in the race. (4) I THANK YOU faces much weaker and has room to improve. (1) EL OH GOVNER should be in line for a nice ground saving trip up close.
Race 2 - FM NW4/30000 Lifetime/ 11000 Claimer
(6) FOX VALLEY SIERRA bumps up a notch but the pacing mare might be up to the task looking for three straight. (4) MY UPTOWNE GIRL burned cash last week but looks the best on paper. (5) COWGIRL TOO picks up a positive driver change and has been competitive against similar on the year. (3) CAMERA QUEEN should be much closer turning for home.
Race 3 - NW2/12500 Lifetime/ AE NW3
(1) PEPIN COOLIE six-year-old looks like the real deal after setting a lifetime mark last week drawing off impressively. (8) LOUSRAPTOR is more than capable of beating this bunch with a smooth trip. (3) ROCKYROAD ALDO has finished first or second in four straight. (5) PUDDIN CHEEKS filly is very fast but needs to mind her manners.
Race 4 – NW1500L4
(1) SUNNY SASHA four-year-old is very inconsistent from week to week. The trotting mare draws the best post and is a big threat if she stays trotting. (10) MOONSHINE RUNNER was good last week showing a nice closing kick. (3) NAUT E CAVIAR has made breaks in three of four but is one of the faster trotters in the race. (2) THREEUPTHREEDOWN well bred gelding makes his first start for new connections.
Race 5 – FM NW2/10000 Lifetime
(10) RUSHING REBA has just been racing evenly but will offer value facing weaker. (8) FOOLISHLITTLEGIRL finds a softer bunch this week and should be in line for a much better trip. (5) CAROLINE GR has been improved in three straight. (6) FOX VALLEY HOTCAKE showed signs of life three back but is probably best used underneath.
Race 6 – FM NW1500L4/ 6000 Claimer-$30k GTD Pick 4
(5) ARE YOU TERRY had some sneaky late pace last week against slightly better. (9) SUMMER PARTY has been ultra sharp and will offer a big price this week with the low percentage pilot. (6) PRINCESS OSHIE fits in with this bunch; threat. (7) SAVANAH GEORGIA pacing mare gets sent out for a red hot barn.
Race 7 – FM NW4/10000 Lifetime
(7) PRETTY IRIS has a valid excuse last week and had been racing gamely prior. (9) JAZZIE BABE has disappointed in two straight and will look to rebound against easier. (1) ASHLEE’S JOY mare has yet to miss the board in all ten starts on the year. (4) FROM ME TO YOU just missed against similar three back.
Race 8 – FM NW1500L4/ 6000 Claimer
(4) BLUE GEM takes a significant drop in class getting sent out for a capable barn. (1) MY KIND OF DANCE draws the best post in a field full of question marks. (6) HARD HEADED WOMEN raced gamely against softer last week; threat. (2) YESWELLNOMAYBE might be able to hit the ticket underneath at a price.
Race 9 - FM NW3/15000 Lifetime/ 10000 Claimer
(3) FRESH EYES was too far back last week to catch the leader. This week the well-bred pacer will be involved much earlier. (1) SAND AND ROCKS should be in line for a great trip up close. (4) PEPPERMINT CANDY flashed some ability last year and is just now back in racing shape. (2) BROOKLETSFOOLSGOLD mare has had trouble finishing her miles; use underneath.
