Race 1

Race 2
(4) GET PACKIN has been on a roll against similar and looks to get an easy early lead. (2) CINCINNATI MYSTRES gets sent out for an inconsistent trainer but is capable of a good effort. (1) BAND'S SUPERSTAR should be much closer turning for home and could pick up the pieces with some racing luck.
Race 3
(7) TIE YOUR SHOE ED nice-looking pacer makes his third career start and looks ready for a big effort. (1) OPENING NIGHT GEM impeccably bred 3-year-old makes his career debut with the best post. (3) UPTOWN ROMANCE owns a good burst of speed and just needs a smooth trip for a chance.
Race 4
(5) RUFF STUFF JACKSON will offer a big price and could get a good spot out of the gate. (7) WESTERN RANGE owns three wins in seven starts on the year and also looks to be leaving for position. (2) RULING V C N takes a significant drop in class and will be used aggressively.
Race 5
(2) SBM GEORGIAN STAR seven-year-old trotting mare is just now back in racing shape and should be primed for a good effort. (5) LADY REV mare owns all the back class and is a huge threat if she stays trotting. (3) LEGACY CHIP picks up the top driver in an evenly matched race.
Race 6
In a wide open race (5) TAZAWA should offer value and has shown a decent burst of speed. (3) SHINDEAGAN was close last out but looks to offer low value. (1) CAUSE TO SMILE picks up a big driver change with the rail.
Race 7
(2) TYMAL RECAP finally gets a better post down in class. (1) NINO MARINO gelding makes his second start off the layoff and is one of few with upside in the race. (5) CANNONBALL just missed at this level last out; threat.
Race 8
(5) SAMS YANKEE picks up a huge driver change and will be tough to beat with an early lead. (1) BOOYAH TJ has some ability and is one of few contenders in the race. (6) AL-MAR SNEAKY PETE owns a good burst of speed and keeps one of the top drivers.
Race 9
(5) MIDNIGHT DRAGON comes into the race off a scratch but finds a really soft bunch if ready. (6) HIGH FLYIN SARA comes off a nice win and but would need much more to get past the top choice. (4) ICONIC STYLE will offer a monster price but has just been racing evenly.
Race 10
(7) HAGI eleven-year-old scored a victory off a layoff and could have more to offer. (3) BLACK ACE HANOVER has been competitive against much better and could be the sleeper in the race even coming off a scratch. (5) OIL SLICKER keeps the top driver in a weak field.
Race 11
(3) MATTOX'S WESTERN looks to be improving showing a big burst of speed in his last race. (4) LITTLE AMOS keeps the top driver and has raced well at this track. (5) VINCENT VEGA has just been racing evenly but takes a significant drop in class.
Race 12
(2) DALTON HANOVER pacer makes his first start for a new trainer in a field full of question marks. (1) MAJOR MIKE has not won in a very long time but also switches barns and benefits from the rail. (4) QUICK KIL picks up a big driver change but has been unable to finish his miles; command a price.
Race 13
(1) MODERN WARFARE bumps up in class off a dominating victory and finds a suspect bunch. (2) MOST REMARKABLE is capable of a good effort and looks to be in line for a decent trip. (6) PUTNAMS STORM has been knocking on the door but will need to find a way into the race.
Race 14
(4) SWEET JON gets sent out for high percentage connections; short price. (1) MR DYLAN could be the only threat to the top choice. (2) DON'T BETREI ME has flashed much more ability than what the pacer shows on paper.
Race 15
(6) ML GAMBLER never had a shot last out but could threaten with some pace to close into. (9) BLAK SMOKN HOT ROD will offer a big price and just needs to stay pacing for a chance. (2) BLUE SCOOTIN MATT has just been racing evenly but drops back down to the bottom level.
