(6) BOBBY ONE MILE will offer a much better price this week despite going for three straight. (5) EASTER TREASURE has made breaks in two of three but can rebound against a weak field with a good effort. (4) SHERMAN TANK put in a decent qualifier last week; use underneath.
Race 2

Race 3
(1) IMPRESSIVE JAZZ might have more in the tank even bumping up a notch. (3) OPAL HANOVER could be ready for an improved effort after a slow start to the season. Stakes winning filly (7) SPIRIT BELL might not be pushed to the max early from a tough outside post; use caution.

Race 14
(4) JETZILLA disappointed last week getting nipped late, however the trotter just needs an easy early lead. (2) GREAT ELIMINATOR might offer the best price of the contenders and has flashed a good burst of speed. (1) LI’L AL’S SPARTAN is a lightly raced filly that is just now back in racing shape.
Race 15
(6) DANGER STRIKE should be a late player with any kind of pace upfront. (3) BAR B CUTE doesn’t show any races on a half mile track; use caution. (9) DRY CREEK SHOOTER has been competitive against better on the year.
Race 16
In a wide open race, (2) SEE ME PACE should get a nice trip up close and offer value. (1) CALEB LOU picks up a huge driver change in a weak field full of question marks. (3) GRATEFUL PRIDE got parked the mile last week against better. The pacer shows a really good effort three back.
