Race 1

Race 2

(6) FRANK THE FISH has shown good improvement in three straight. (2) STORMIN AT DAWN four-year-old trotter has hit the board in four of five. (1) WON THE WAR takes a significant drop in competition and was the top driver’s choice.

Race 3

(3) BALLISTIC TIP could be sitting on an improved effort; third start back off the short layoff. (1) ONEISALONELYNUMBER will look to drop and pop down at the bottom level. (5) IN COMMANDO is more than capable of beating this bunch with a decent setup.

Race 4

(3) MONTANA SKIES veteran trotter should be closer turning for home this week. (5) BOOYAH TJ heavy morning line favorite is very inconsistent; use with caution. (6) IVA SECRET had some sneaky late trot last week against similar.

Race 5

(4) PRAIRIECREEK PRIDE four-year-old pacer burned cash last week but is one of the few in the race that has flashed a decent burst of speed. (2) HEZA HOTSHOT shows good gate speed and has hit the board in two straight at this level. (3) SOUTHERN SAGE has been close against similar in recent.

Race 6

(9) C W HOME BOY just needs to stay trotting for a piece of the pie. (3) RATTLING PINE gets sent out for a capable trotting barn off a decent qualifier. (6) DYNAMITE STICK has room to improve facing a weak field full of question marks.

Race 7

(1) MR MATCH ON BEACH made a big move down the backside last race before tiring late. The 6-year-old should have an easier trip this week starting from the rail. (9) MCCUTCHEN was sharp in the qualifier. (6) SOUTHWIND WHISKI has room to improve; second start out for a new barn.

Race 8

(7) THE THUNDER ROLLS nice looking home bred has the most upside in the field by far. (5) DEVIOUS DAME ran second to the top choice last week, closing nicely. (4) TINOS PULSE keeps the top driver but will likely need more.

Race 9

(3) FINISH LINE drops down a notch after a decent effort against better. (4) WALLTOCOUSINS shows a win at this level a few starts back. (7) BEND IN THE RIVER picks up a positive driver change and can threaten with a decent effort.

Race 10

(2) PET SHARK shows competitive miles against much tougher on the year. (1) INSTANT THRILL looks to be in line for a great trip up close. (5) COPPER COAST A picks up a huge driver change; threat.

Race 11

(2) LION IMAGE six-year-old is one of a few in the race that shows consistency. (1) MANNY L had a great three-year-old campaign but probably needs a start off the layoff. (3) BANKER TWENTYFIVE 4-year-old stallion is very fast when he stays trotting.

Race 12

(3) BETTOR’S OUTLAW pacing gelding is capable of better and could use a fast pace to close into for his best chance. (4) ROCK POWER takes a huge drop down in class for a new barn. (5) QUICK ART finds a weak and inconsistent field; threat.

Race 13

(1) TIMELESS UTAH looks primed for a good effort in second start back. (7) NEYMAR might be one of the few threats in the field, but needs to find a way into the race. (5) ZORGWIJK SOPHIA has made breaks in five of nine lines. However, the trotting mare was solid in the recent qualifier.

Race 14

(1) MODERN GESTURE had tons of late pace against a better group last race. The 9-year-old gets sent out for a second start for a new barn. (5) THINK BIGGER just missed at this level last week while racing gamely. (3) HALFA CENTURY could hit the ticket underneath with some racing luck.

Race 15

(7) SOUTHERN WINDS gets sent out for capable connections; third start off the claim. The 8-year-old takes a significant drop in class. (4) JD’S MACCA LODGE probably needed the start last week and has room to move forward keeping a top driver. (3) PAPIAMENTO is very fast but gets sent out for a provisional pilot.

Race 16

(6) BUBBIE BOY drops down to the bottom level and will be used aggressively. (7) BEACH BOY BRODY showed a big burst of speed last out against a better bunch. (9) GIUSEPPE MOLLUSCA has not won in a long time but can hit the board with a trouble-free trip.
