Race 2
(3) CW HOME BOY is one of few in the field that's flashed ability. (4) RATTLING PINE three-year-old gets sent out for a good trotting barn. (7) WHYKATIEWHY adds second-time Lasix and looks to offer a big price.
Race 3
(1) FINDING TERROR should benefit from drawing the rail dropping down a notch. (3) GIUSEPPE MOLLUSCA needs a good setup but was close to hitting the ticket at a price last out. (2) SCARLET CAT could be in line for a good trip up close.
Race 4
(4) SWEET HONEY will be tough to beat with a trouble-free trip. (2) RIVERDANCING DIVA fits in with this bunch; threat. (7) COMMAND THE FIRE gelding gets sent out second start for a new barn and is capable of getting position off the gate.
Race 5
(4) EARL WEST first-time starter might be one of few threats in the field. (1) PRAIRIECREEK PRIDE broke his maiden at this level last week impressively; short price. (9) JOJO GO N SPI will likely be in line for another good trip at a big price; use underneath.
Race 6
(7) TIMELESS UTAH should be ready for an improved effort this week at a much better price. (6) EDIT veteran trotter takes a significant drop in class. (8) NEYMAR has flashed a decent burst of speed in two straight.
Race 7
(3) MAX DEAL was solid in the qualifier last week off a very long layoff. (1) NORTHERN SPORTSMAN has finished second in this class in two straight. (5) MAKE THE BOOKS has room to improve in a weak field full of question marks.
Race 8
(2) STONEBOROUGH picks up a positive driver change and owns a win at this level a few starts back. (1) JUST FRIENDS mare doesn't look the best but draws inside making her third start back off the long layoff. (3) ROYAL TENSION could be able to pickup a late piece with a decent setup.
Race 9
(4) CRANKITINO scored a lifetime mark last week drawing off late. (1) DIVINE FATE could be sitting in an ideal spot should the top choice have trouble making the lead. (3) MOONSHINE MICKEY keeps the top driver but has been unable to seal the deal at this level; command a price.
Race 10

Race 11
(3) DANCIN FEVER doesn't have an excuse for last week but should dominate this bunch with a good effort. (1) HEISENBERG Z TAM shows some good miles against better and draws the rail. (9) GOTTA GO B B is capable pacing a big mile from time to time.
Race 12
(9) OCTANE BLUE CHIP paced a big three-quarters of a mile last week against a better bunch. (4) PRINCE OF ART gets sent out for a low percentage pilot but just missed blowing up the tote board last week against similar. (1) TURBO MACH draws the best post off an impressive wire to wire win.
Race 13
(5) MONTANA SKIES is just now back in racing shape and should offer decent value. (3) UPFRONT CHIP DADDY morning-line favorite was sharp last week off the claim; short price. (10) EXPLOSIVE well bred trotter has hit the board in four of his last six starts.
Race 14
(6) VELOCITY U BET needs a good setup but shows two wins in this class on the year. (9) BEIGNET picks up a big driver change and could be ready for an improved effort. (5) DP SPOOFEE shows a solid second against a similar group two back.
Race 15
(2) SECRET TRAINER is one of few threats in the race and will offer a solid price. (1) GREAT ELIMNATOR has lots of room to improve second start back picking up a top driver. (5) HERE'S JOLENE four-year-old mare does her best racing up front but might be hard pressed to get there.
Race 16
(3) WESTERN DYNASTY takes a big drop in class getting sent out second start for a capable barn. (1) JOES ON A ROLL finally draws inside at this level; threat. (2) HEZA REAL SHOOTER pacing gelding is also dropping down and should be closer turning for home.
