Race 1
In a really weak field, (6) JAILHOUSE ROXIE won at this level two back and will offer a nice price. (5) MEADOWBRANCH MAX showed some improvement last week. (1) KATY DID has yet to win on the year but should be in an excellent spot up close.
Race 2
(5) ROCKS AND THINGS set a lifetime mark last week last week drawing off. (6) ROKNROL FREDDY raced really well at this level last week coming off two scratches. (1) OUT WIT has just been racing evenly; command a price.
Race 3
(5) MY INDIANA sophomore filly has lots of room to improve in her second career start. (3) EAST LAKER finds a really weak field full of question marks. (4) ONE SHARP BULLET needs to stay trotting but will offer a big price in a wide open race.
Race 4
(5) BETTY BARLEY filly has just been racing evenly but has flashed more ability than most of the field. (4) NEW NUMBER WHO DIS was competitive against better at this track a few starts back. (2) SAND SCHOONER has shown a decent closing move and draws inside.
Race 5
(5) IMPRESSIVE JAZZ was improving nicely before the miscue last week; threat. (6) JUSTICE REIGNS is very inconsistent from week to week but a good effort puts him in the mix. (1) RYANLEE has been competitive against similar.
Race 6
(4) WIT AND WISDOM doesn't win often but raced well last week against a sharp opponent. (6) RUSTY'S NO FOOL had no chance last week from the outside but raced well against better two back. (2) TYE SEELSTER stallion pacer drops down against weaker; short price.
Race 7
(9) BUTTER TOFFEE will offer a big price and has been very competitive against this bunch. (1) MAN SHES HOT will look to make it three straight wins. (6) EIGHTOCLOCKSTORM has showed tremendous improvement in two straight.
Race 8
(6) ROCK ON CREEK went a big last three-quarters of a mile last week just missing at this level. (3) SENATOR CHARLIE needs a good setup but paced a decent mile last start against softer. (5) WILBUR'S Z TAM fits in with this bunch nicely.
Race 9
(5) DEEP QUESTION beat a better field last week trotting a fast mile. (6) BLACKWOLF RUN has been improved in two straight despite the late miscue last race. (9) JILONA has yet to win on the year but should be in line for a decent ground-saving trip.
Race 10
(9) THE ROCK just missed against tougher last week racing gamely. (2) HAVE A PARODI is 0 for the year but picks up a top driver in a weak and inconsistent field. (1) GOLDSTAR RAIDER also picks up a positive driver change and starts from the best post.
Race 11
(7) MOLLY MAE OSHEA lightly raced filly has lots of room to improve in her third career start. (4) GIVEMEONEMORESHOT raced huge last start winning from a tough spot. (8) DANGER STRIKE needs to find a way into the race but has been improving in every start.
Race 12

Race 13
(5) JUST CROWNED will look to drop and pop down in class. (3) HAWK'S CRY SQUIRT has yet to win on the year; command a price. (1) JEDD KIDD SQUAKING gets the best post but is best used underneath.
Race 14
(4) NO WHIP CHIP owns multiple wins on the year against better. (3) SNEAKY SAM is one of few threats in the race to the favorite with a trouble-free trip. (9) RAIL KAT was facing slightly better at The Meadows in recent.
Race 15
(3) DRAGON RULER two-year-old put in a huge effort at this track two starts back. (8) CARIBBEANCAT gets sent out first start in a new barn. (6) DIVINE FATE was closing on the leaders late last week at this level.
Race 16
(2) SOUTHWIND JOKER picks up a huge driver change dropping to the bottom level. (1) UNTOLD LEGEND is more than capable of pacing a good mile against this group. (3) ONEMORELASTCHANCE has been competitive against similar on the year.
