Best Bet: DEMETER N (8th)
Spot Play: DONGAL RUNDLSCRK N (6th)
Race 1: NW2 races or $25,000 lifetime Pace

(1) LITTLE SANDY TOES put in a solid effort from start to finish upon arrival, just missing to a rival who already came back with another big race. Harris trainee is the one to beat in the opener. (3) GABBY TABBY shocked the world last out with a last-to-first sweep at 61/1 and although it was a slow last quarter she moved into it was still a sharp display; filly now gets post relief looking to repeat. (6) WESTMONT Z TAM gets Dube on the catch-drive; take a look.

Race 2: NW5000 in last 5 starts Trot

(6) BAZILLIONAIRE gets some needed class relief and he was a winner when last at this level; long-time local trainer Tom Corelli has had some success this season with his barn and this guy can offer some value in a wide-open race. (3) WATKINS has been knocking on the door for some time and the veteran will win a race eventually. (1) CHECKMATE HILL moves inside and seems fast enough to go with these.

Race 3: NW2 races or $25,000 lifetime Pace

(3) TAVA just missed in a minor stakes event at the Delaware County Fair and the 2-year-old finished third in the Excelsior A final; DiDomenico trainee seems the one to beat, but at a short price. (7) SHE'SONEHOTWRITER took money last week but never threatened, pacing home evenly. Let's see if she can somehow get involved tonight. (4) SUNRISE HANOVER invades from Pocono and the Mike Simons trainee gets Buter in the bike tonight.

Race 4: NW5000 in last 5 starts Trot

(2) SECRET BRO was cruising on the front end at odds-on when he broke for no reason last out; I guess he deserves another chance. (1) LIFE WELL LIVED has some speed and the best draw, gelding should work out a live trip from this spot. (8) GOLDEN KRONOS has some talent and some early speed; can Brennan get him in play?

Race 5: NW5000 in last 5 starts Trot

(3) PHOTO BOMBER rated the pace in his local return but was collared by the trip-sitter; trotter should be forwardly placed again looking to make amends. (2) ZAGSTER is certainly speedy enough but the Harris trainee needs a bit more late stamina. (1) EXS AND OHS has a miscue sandwiched between two decent front-end tries; Corelli trainee is proven with this type and would be no surprise.

Race 6: F&M NW5000 in last 5 starts Pace

(3) DONGAL RUNDLSCRK N hasn't shown a whole lot recently but the Vallee-trained mare gets some much-needed class relief, draws well enough and is certainly capable of showing more. (5) CHARMS LIL SIS didn't fire last week at The Meadowlands but her prior efforts were good; Bartlett's choice. (7) FOLLOWTHEWIND N does have two recent front-end victories here; trip is uncertain tonight but she definitely deserves consideration.

Race 7: NW7500 in last 5 starts Trot

(2) OOH RAH has been a little slow to get underway this year but he's got the talent when he behaves himself and his stablemate Ponder The Odds has been on fire. (5) ADAGIO DE LA TOUR has clearly tailed off of late but the veteran is a proven entity with this type. (1) KINDA LUCKY LINDY ships in off a good try at Pocono and she lands the best post; Dube’s choice.

Race 8: NW8 races or $100,000 lifetime Pace

(1) DEMETER N put in a stellar effort in defeat over at The Big M in just her first U.S. start; recent import lands the best post here and will look to top a talented field. (4) ARTFUL DANCER arrives from Ohio where she's had a solid season facing stakes company; filly was second best in the $300K OHSS final last month. (5) BOLT OF BEAUTY was overmatched in the Jugette but she was the Excelsior A champion in her prior start.

Race 9: NW10000 in last 5 starts Trot

(1) ELYSIUM LINDY looks to be back in winning form and when right he can beat better than these; Bartlett will be looking to take these down the road. (6) LORD CROMWELL returns locally and has too much back class to ignore. (3) GETTING MESSI does drop a notch and draws a bit better; small piece?

Race 10: NW4 races or $50,000 lifetime Pace

(6) ANNE BONNEY N gets another free ride at this NW4 level after jogging in two straight at odds-on; Vinny Ginsburg is in to drive tonight looking to take another. (3) WINDFALL PROFITS gets needed post relief and can be more involved. (2) READY SET ROCK tired from the pocket last week in a minor stakes event at Freehold; filly does show a recent win here versus lesser and may be good enough for a small piece.
