Race 2
(5) DELIRIUM drops into this claiming class after finishing second at a tougher level last week. (4) DAZZLE N DELIGHT was an upset winner last week in this class at 8-1. (2) WINDSUN KENDA was a winner two back in this class and comes from the Puddy barn.
Race 3
(3) HAPE entered the Jack Moiseyev barn prior to last week's effort, which resulted in a second-place finish. (8) MEADOW SEELSTER has posted two wins in her last three starts and comes from a very capable trainer in Bill Budd. (4) CUM LAUDE HALL was a winner last week in the other division for trainer Rick Zeron.
Race 4
(6) KINDOFABIGDEAL is a perfect one-for-one in the care of trainer Richard Moreau and the young sophomore will be making just his fourth career start this evening. (8) MISTER ACCUMULATOR comes from the Tony O'Sullivan barn and raced very well last week considering he began from an outside post and got away near the back. (7) CHATTANOOGA JIM will make his ninth career start and continues to show the speed needed for this class
Race 5
(4) LITTLE MISS SPORTY provided a 16-1 upset score in the opening round of the Autumn Series and I'll back her in this rich final. (1) EVAS GIRL romped last week by open lengths to score in her division of the second round for trainer Pete Core. (3) DUBLIN ROSE also draws well for this evening's contest and will offer a short price.
Race 6
(2) STUARTS DYNASTY has been a recent addition into the Ben Baillargeon barn and it didn't take long for the gelding to find success. (1) SORRENTO HALL draws the rail on this occasion and comes from the Rick Zeron barn. (6) ME THE BOSS has been a consistent threat as of late and now drops down in class for trainer Steve Charlton.
Race 7
(5) MIRAMONTMAN is overdue for a winning effort and it may come in here for this talented six-year-old. (8) WORLD AWAY is a back class veteran who has been struggling as of late. (4) F TWENTY TWO comes from a very high percentage trainer in Sue Gangell and this four-year-old raced very well last week in this bottom class to finish second.
Race 8
(6) SI SEMALU was an impressive winner in his latest last week in this class as the four-year-old was victorious in 1:51 2/5 for driver Jack Moiseyev. (5) SKY DESPERADO will make his debut for new trainer Isaac Waxman this evening after leaving the Marty Fine barn last start. (8) RAVE ON has been a consistent threat in this class all season for trainer Corey Johnson and the veteran pacer has stashed away nearly $80K this season.
Race 9
(4) AMAZING CONTROL comes out of the Ontario-Sired Autumn Series and into this maiden class for rookie pacing fillies. (1) QUEENSLAND BEACH was the post time favorite last week and had to settle for second for trainer Brent MacGrath. (3) ARTIAWITCHTOYOU raced for the first time in her career last week and although the end result wasn't positive, she did provide a good overall mile for her connections.
Race 10
(1) FORK has been the victim of a number of outside post positions as of late, but has finally been blessed this evening with the rail. (4) UPFRONTLUCKYCAROL moves back into the Brad Maxwell barn and that's the main reason for my selection. (8) ZEUS LIGHTNING is the picture of back class week in and week out on the WEG Circuit and provided a strong effort last week when dropped into this class.
Race 11
(5) ROLLTIDEROLL came up short last week after the pacing miss was parked every step of the mile. However, tonight might be a different story with a better post position and Jody Jamieson back aboard. (7) KIKISKISSNKOUSIN is a good option to consider in the win column or in the Jackpot Hi 5. (10) A REAL COMMITMENT will need to overcome the far outside post position tonight, but I believe the four-year-old is capable as she drops in class and possesses excellent gate speed when called upon.
