Race 1 - NW1/7500 Lifetime /AE NW2/15000 Lifetime/10000 Claimer
(3) MISTERPINECREDIT has room to improve in his second start out for a new barn. (4) MONSTER MYLES looks ready for a good effort at this level with a trouble free trip. (7) MJ’S HEARTBREAKER trotting mare has been solid in two straight but needs to find a way into the race. (5) THE LINK OF ART morning line favorite has just been racing evenly; command a price.
Race 2 - NW1/10000 Lifetime/7500 Claimer
(7) EASTER DUNN four-year-old finds a weak field full of question marks. The trotter makes his third start back off a long layoff and will offer a big price. (1) AWSOME DUNN draws the best post and also could improve in his second start of the year. (4) MARK C ADAMS was improved in the qualifier but gets sent out for a provisional pilot. (2) PARTINGOFTHEWAYS four-year-old stallion doesn’t look the best on paper but is making his first start for a new barn.
Race 3 - NW750L4
(4) DOMINUS HANOVER picks up a top driver dropping down to the bottom level. (5) NONO LINDY also takes a big drop down facing weaker. (9) BOOKEM gets sent out for a low percentage pilot and is best used underneath. (8) MARY’S DARVIN could be rounding into better form after a three in a half year layoff. The 12-year-old trotting mare might be able to hit the ticket at a huge price one of these weeks.
Race 4 - NW1/10000 Lifetime/7500 Claimer
(1) ALL PIPED UP faces easier this week drawing the rail. (2) PLAY THE FOOL was close two back against slightly better. (5) MENALAUS sophomore pacer finds an ideal spot for new connections. (3) COLT SWINDELL has flashed ability at this level but has been dull in three straight.
Race 5 - NW2/20000 Lifetime
(5) MM’S CREDIT LINE looks much faster than the rest of the field on paper; short price. (8) DR JUDGE might be the only threat to the top choice with a lot of racing luck. (1) SLICK SARAH raced well at this level two back. (3) MS O’REILLY filly faces older but set a lifetime mark last week and has some upside.
Race 6 - NW750L4
(2) LADY’S MAN picks up a top driver and needed the fair start last week. (3) TERROR OF THETRACK is very inconsistent; however the pacer always offers a big price and is capable with a good setup. (4) JOJO IN THE SKY takes a significant drop down for a low percentage provisional pilot. (1) RIVER’S CREST draws the rail off a decent qualifier but probably needs a start coming off the long layoff.
Race 7 - NW1500L4– $10k GTD Pick 4
(1) SIMMY shows wins against better and draws the best post. (3) HE’S GONE impeccably bred trotter gets the slight nod as the morning line favorite but has just been racing evenly. (6) SIR JAMES is one of the faster trotters in the race and takes a huge drop down. (4) CULINARY DELIGHT has hit the board against similar; use underneath.
Race 8 - NW1500L4
(1) HES WELL CONNECTED will look to drop and pop down in class against much weaker. (3) E R MICHAEL can threaten with a smooth trip. (9) BETTOR’S DREAM stayed flat in the qualifier and should be in line for a decent ground saving trip. (2) LUNATIC FRINGE shows competitive efforts against similar on the season.
Race 9 - NW1/7500 Lifetime
(2) PAMPERED’S PRINCE raced well first start off the layoff at this level last week. (1) ROSE RUN VALOR draws the rail against a weak and inconsistent field.

Race 10 -NW1/7500 Lifetime /AE NW2/15000 Lifetime/10000 Claimer
(5) DESIRABLE LOU has yet to win at this level but is more consistent than most of the field. (8) ROCK N ROLL DOODLE would have been my top choice with an inside post. (3) ROCK KEENA gets sent out for a top barn off a win against similar. (1) MOONSHINE MICKEY should be in line for a good trip up close.
Race 11 - NW2750L4 - $10k GTD Pick 4
(5) NEXT WOMAN UP bumps up a notch after drawing off to a new life mark last start. (3) RAY HALL owns some back class when right but burned cash last week at this level. (9) CRUZEN CASSI has made the most money of the field on the year and picks up a top driver. (6) OZYMANDIAS needs some racing luck to hit the ticket at a price.
Race 12 – NW1500L4
(1) CAMS FERNANDO owns gate speed and draws the best post. (6) SHARPLOOKIN FINALE picks up a positive driver change and shows wins against better on paper. (3) AMERICHI pacing stallion has trouble finishing his miles; use caution. (2) SIR HOWIES Z TAM has just been racing evenly; use underneath.
Race 13 - NW2750L4 - $10K GTD Hi5
(6) SIP AND A BITE four-year-old looks to offer the better price of the contenders and raced gamely last week at this level. (5) ANARCHY HANOVER gelding will be tough to beat with a repeat performance of his last race. (3) FRISKIE CRUISER is winless on the year but shows improvement in recent starts. (1) ACTING CAPTAIN has hit the board in two of three but is best used underneath.
Race 14 - NW4/30000 Lifetime / AE NW6/40000 Lifetime/20000 Claimer
(8) COCO HALL nice looking trotting mare is on a roll and might offer a better price this week starting from the far outside. (5) EVAN HANOVER put in a decent effort last race but needs fast fractions up front for his best chance. (3) DOYOUFEELLUCKYPUNK could be closer turning for home this week starting from the inside. (7) YOUGOTTABECRAZY has been competitive against better on the year.
Race 15 – 5000 Claimer
(1) AMAZING CHIP draws the best post picking up a top driver against a weak field full of question marks. (9) PRINCE OF ART needs a smooth trip for a chance to hit the ticket at a price. (3) HOT SHOT HILL just missed against similar last week. (4) A PLUS HANOVER had decent late pace at this level two back.
Race 16 - NW2750L4
(4) SUPER ROCK raced deceptively well last week. The veteran trotter picks up a big driver change and should have an easier trip this week. (1) SWAN ON THE BANK looks to be in line for a great trip up close. (3) GUTH looked like a winner against similar last race before tiring a bit late. (5) IRON could pick up the pieces in the right scenario but is probably best used on the bottom of your tickets.
