Race 1: F&M NW2 races or $25,000 lifetime Pace

(5) MAJOR NIGHT OUT came up a touch short last week in her local return but the filly deserves another chance. (1) LADY SOPHIA has been solid in two of three local starts for Richard Bilach and she gets to stay at this NW2 level while drawing well again; she's clearly a top contender. (3) SHE'SONEHOTWRITER is just 1 for 39 lifetime but she’s picked up checks in her last 5 starts and figures on another share tonight.

Race 2: NW5000 in last 5 starts Trot

(3) ALEXANDRIA HANOVER took all the money last start but was held at bay through the lane; Garcia-Herrera trainee has been knocking on the door for some time and I'll give her another try. (4) CASA PALMERA has been racing well out of town and she owns a local win this year. (2) LIFE WELL LIVED drops back to the NW5000 level where he was an upset winner three back.

Race 3: NW2 races or $26,000 lifetime Pace

(3) LUCK B MINE has taken two straight on the front end and still qualifies for this NW2 condition; Beckwith trainee will likely be odds-on to take another. (6) UPTOWN CALLIE broke last week from the pocket; another chance. (1) IDEAL HANNAH is still looking for that first lifetime win and she came close last week at a big price.

Race 4: NW7500 in last 5 starts Trot

(2) BLENHEIM faltered on the front end last week but he may be better coming from slightly off the pace and the Lance Hudson trainee may be able to grind his way to victory here. (7) LIMERENCE flashes good speed when in the right spots and note the driver change to Bongiorno. (5) FASHIONWOODCHOPPER made big money as a youngster but hasn't really panned out as an aged trotter; he's been dull over at The Meadowlands but maybe the change in scenery will help his cause.

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

(1) GINA GRACE N gets MacDonald in the bike tonight subbing for Stalbaum and she's got the class to take this field down the road. (7) MY RONA GOLD N just can't seem to find the wire with four recent losses by necks and noses; Stratton figures to be forwardly placed with the Shane Tritton trainee and perhaps she can trip out. (5) PITTSTOP DANIKA hasn't been all that bad this season for Laterza despite only having one win this year; she does fit well at this NW5000 level and she could rally for a share.

Race 6: NW7500 in last 5 starts Trot

(4) SHOWMEYOURGUNS hasn't done much recently while facing better but the veteran gets to drop a notch and has more than enough talent to get the job done. (1) IN MY DREAMS moves all the way inside and is probably the one to catch. (2) OOH RAH was second best out of the eight hole two back after flashing solid early speed then was a bit overmatched last start; he can be seriously considered from this spot.

Race 7: F&M NW5000 in last 5 starts Pace

(2) LOVERS COVE never got involved last week but she hit the board in her last four starts with Bartlett driving and he returns to the bike tonight, from a good post. (3) ZOE ELLASEN also never fired in her last start but the move back inside should help. (6) ALL ABOUT AMY keeps drawing poorly but at least she gets some class relief dropping to the NW5000 ranks.

Race 8: F&M NW4 races or $50,000 lifetime Pace

(1) WESTMONT Z TAM is one of a barn-full of Pat Lachance trainees that have all been super-live and this one gets Stratton catch-driving from the best post coming off a win from the eight hole; lots to like. (6) EYE POPPING was 3/5 in the race the top choice was victorious in; overall the DiDomenico trainee has been good. (7) JK FINEDANDY seems to have the ability but needs to show more late.

Race 9: NW10600 in last 5 starts Trot

(5) HILL OF A HORSE finished well last week which was an improvement over the prior start where he failed to step it up late; Erv Miller gets to drop in class again and he's a prime contender here. (4) MONEY MAVEN tried it on the front end last out and tired; Bartlett drives again and this oldtimer should still be competitive here. (1) VALLORIA N is best a level or two down but the Peter Tritton trainee lands the best post and will be sitting a close-up trip.

Race 10: F&M NW8 races or $100,000 lifetime Hcp Pace

(4) GOLDEN QUEST N had missed a month arriving from Pocono and coming off a sick scratch but she just missed in a solid try; Harder trainee comes off more missed time and she faces some legit talent here but may be up to the task. (2) ANNE BONNEY N has taken six straight since moving to the Paul Fusco barn and she gets a good test here; we'll see how good she really is. (3) GALLERIA GAL was third here in the NYSS final and followed that up with some good efforts. Solid, competitive finale.
