Race 1: NW5 (F&M10) or $70,000 (F&M $115,000) AE: 3YO **Guaranteed $100,000 Pick 5**
(7) MACHO MARTINI gets away from razor-sharp Logan Park tonight and he should be all set for his best effort of 2021 in here; top call. (8) TOKYO SEELSTER raced better last week as expected but he couldn't reach the chalky winner. He’s in with a chance here. (1) NIMBUS DEO is racing well and finishing fast. She is another in with a shot in a race with several realistic options. (3) HEAVENSDOR HANOVER was a predictable winner with McNair driving last week and the gelding smashed his old life's mark in the process, trotting a 1:52 3/5 mile. This is obviously a tougher spot, and he has Spence listed to drive so I'll use him underneath.

Race 2: F&M CLAIMING HANDICAP $12,000 to $16,000
(5) REAR VIEW goes to a high-percentage barn off the claim here and I'll give her the nod to turn the tables on (4) BEHAVENMYSELF who was great last week but has had trouble repeating recently. (7) VINES TO HEAVEN goes for Moreau off the claim here and he has had some success with her in the past; using. (6) BLINK AND GONE was sharp last week racing off the claim last week but this looks tougher; using underneath.

Race 3: 4YO and Younger NW1 or $8,000 LT
(5) DOWNERS DELIGHT was first up in a fast race and this should be a much easier spot for him. The 17th try might be the charm tonight. (2) MISSION COMMAND seemed to turn things around in his July 13th qualifier and he is worth a look here off his 27 1/5 kicker from that race. (9) KOUNT BLASTER gets Drury for a second drive here and he could set sail early and try to lead these all the way; using. (3) SHES WATCHING ME stacks up favorably with his rivals here but he comes off a break in stride. I'd demand a price here.
Race 4: 3YO Fillies - Pick 4
(1) H P MAMA B is the queen of this division but keep in mind this is a $20,000 race between $100K Gold sires stakes events. Should she win? Absolutely. Stranger things have happened in these types of races, however. (6) IMEXTRASPECIAL is the logical alternative to the choice and she is one to consider for multi-race tickets. (4) UP AND READY is in peak form now and she should be part of this Tri, at a minimum. (8) FUZZY ANGEL is on a big roll but these are much tougher than Grassroots fillies. I'll use her on the bottom.
Race 5: F&M Claiming $18,000 for NW $78,500 LT
(3) TOWN DELINQUENT demolished a field of tough aged males two starts back in Sarnia and driver Young has already brought in a couple of winners at great prices this week. I'll call him to upset likely chalk (4) TUGGINGONCREDIT, who is a perfect two-for-two in the Fine barn while improving her late speed. (8) SAULSBROOK FLASHY was flying late last week and she should be a contender here. You won't get anything close to the 49 to 1 she offered then, however. (5) HALLSGLENSMAVIS is right there every week and she'll trip out and win one of these soon, but I prefer to use her underneath in this spot.
Race 6: PREFERRED - Pick 5
(4) RUN DIRECTOR is on fire right now and he gets the call to notch the threepeat despite stepping up to the top class. (2) TREASURED TEE has won three of the last five Preferreds and he is the one that the choice will need to knock off. (6) ONLY FOR JUSTICE fires home quickly every week and he could roll past them all late if there is any early or mid-race battling. (1) MEMO should sit another good trip and take a share.
Race 7: NW3 (F&M5) or $55,000 LT - Pick 4
(5) FULL OF MUSCLES should be full of confidence after jogging from the 10-hole and taking a new life's mark last week. He should be tough to beat at a short price tonight. (6) PRINCESSPARTYPANTS is another that gets post relief here and she raced great from the 9-hole last week parked the route. She should be an Exacta factor. (3) WARRAWEE WHISPER is in top form now and his tactical speed makes him a threat but he may find the choice too tough. (10) DEALIN WITH DEWEY figures to come on late for a small share starting from out there.
Race 8: 4YO and Younger NW2 or $15,000 LT
(5) THE LEGEND HANOVER gets to drop into a NW2 coming out of a fast race where he was right there in Pennsylvania and he is another big favorite that will be hard to knock off. (6) DO YOU SEE IT figures to be the main challenger stepping up off a strong maiden score but he will likely need to be faster to beat the choice. (2) ISLAND BEACH BOY should race near the front throughout and stick around for another spot in the Tri. (4) JTS JET has improving form; consider for the bottom of the Tri and Super.

Race 9: DREAM MAKER PACING SERIES 2YO First Leg
(3) MANY MOONS looked good here last week motoring home to easily beat maidens, producing a 26 3/5 kicker over the sloppy Mohawk Park track in the process. I'll give this rapidly improving colt the nod. (2) NAUTICAL HANOVER has been the fastest in here and he ships north for top connections as the obvious one to fear. (10) ATLAS HANOVER should find the company easier here but post 10 could be his undoing. I'd demand a price. (5) TRUE BLUE LINDY was another sharp winner in the slop last week here. He can land in the Tri or Super racing from close range.
Race 10: NW $12,000 L5 or $24,500 L10 or NW6 LT AE: OPT CLM $35,000
Tough race to end the late multi-race bets here. (2) O NARUTAC PERFETTO showed that he is sharp last week by leaving hard from the 10-hole to get position early. Being first up isn't his trip typically though. He should be on cover this week and he gets a slight nod tonight. (8) GRANDMA HEIDI was right there in a fast mile and she will likely try to go right down the road tonight. (6) NYLANDER had his two-race win streak broken when he raced one class higher than this last week. He fits better here and he is another in with a chance. (5) DERF HANOVER is another that was first up last week who can get a better trip here but I prefer to use him underneath. (7) BAUTISTA did all the heavy lifting only to be picked off by a pocket sitter. He should be part of this High-5.
