Race 1
(1) DEJARMBRO LEGACY had some sneaky late trot last week and gets the best post. (2) NANTUCKET picks up a huge driver change. (4) AGENT HANNA three-year-old has flashed ability.
Race 2
(3) LADY EDITH trotting mare is just now back in racing shape and should be ready for a good effort. (9) SOULFUL DELIGHT nine-year-old will offer a big price; use underneath. (7) NET REVENUE has been competitive against better on the year.
Race 3

Race 4

Race 6
In a weak and inconsistent field, (2) MONEY GUNS LAWYERS paced a big mile at this level last week. The 6-year-old makes his second start back off a long layoff. (5) DELIGHTFUL BRAEDEN has yet to win on the year; command a price. (3) ABERARDER MAX should be closer turning for home this week.
Race 7

Race 9
(2) SIMONA DREAM filly has stayed trotting in two straight races; threat. (9) SNEAKY SAM has hit the board consistently on the year. (3) DIVA DEJARMBRO filly is very talented but needs to mind her manners.

Race 12
(2) FERRISWHEEL JUNKIE gets sent out for capable connections off a nice qualifier. (1) I'VE GOT SPIRIT should be in line for a nice trip up close. (3) T P MAXIMUS has just been racing evenly; use underneath.
Race 13

Race 15
(4) FINAL CHAMPION filly will offer the best price of the contenders and has room to improve for new connections. (1) ONE HOT MESS looks to be a very short price; use caution. (2) WESTERN LEGS has room to improve third start back.
Race 16
(1) HAKUNA MATATA takes a big drop in class with the best post. (3) LIGHTNINGINTHESKY veteran pacer rarely wins but fits in with this bunch nicely. (5) IMA NUISANCE will offer a big price and is capable of pacing a fast mile.
