FINAL 2025 MEET STATS: 440 - 1395 / $2,521.12 (-$266.88) BEST BETS: 73 - 134 / $242.38 (-$25.62) Final numbers could have been worse I suppose… BEST BET: ONEFORTHEROAD GB (3rd) SPOT PLAY: TWIST LITTLE GIRL N (4th) Race 1: NW7500 in last 5 starts Pace (4) WAVEMAKER woke up with a much-improved effort on the dropdown in his 2025 finale; Siegelman had the catch drive that night and is in the bike tonight. (3) THE BIGBOSS A is the only one in here with a start in 2026 and he gets a notable driver change upon arrival. (1) SHAKESPEARE has a class edge on many of these and the best draw but hasn't raced in almost seven weeks. [DRF HARNESS: Get Harness Eye PPs for this card] Race 2: F&M $20,000 Claiming Pace (7) ANNELIESE HANOVER returns locally for owner/driver Dan Dube and though she's had just moderate success at this level in the past she had been racing well at Dover and has a recency edge on these. Post is tough but she'll be a price. (6) DISARONNO HILL has been firing off the gate in her last few starts and her speed makes her dangerous. (1) STONECOLD GIRL always finishes close up when drawn well and she figures to be looking at a live trip. Race 3: 2-5YO Winners 2-5 races or $60,000 LT Pace (2) ONEFORTHEROAD GB blew away the field at The Meadowlands in his seasonal debut for the Tritton barn and he now picks up Bartlett for his local return. Clearly the one to beat. (6) FEDERER also has a recent start across the river plus the speed to overcome the post. (3) ITS ELECTRIFYING N has license to improve in his second start after arriving from Down Under. Race 4: F&M $50,000 Claiming Pace (3) TWIST LITTLE GIRL N is another selection who probably benefits from having a recent start, though she was never close from post 10 at The Meadowlands. Gets a new driver in Holland and fits with these. (4) MACHS LEGACY A was outbattled by a good one in her 2025 finale. (6) MISS PERIGNON N didn't fire last out but that was against a bit better and she was on point the previous couple of months at this level.    Race 5: F&M $20,000 Claiming Pace (3) KAT may have been in a bit over her head in her last couple of starts but the Stratton trainee drops back into 20's and returns to brother Jordan in the bike from a decent post. (1) NUTTINBUTHEBEST ended her season on a winning note; major player if ready. (5) SHAKE ME LOOSE ships in from Philly as a fresh face and she picks up Gingras; mare did win a race here last season in just two tries. Race 6: F&M $30,000 Claiming Pace (2) YS SENSATIONALCITY was a model of consistency pretty much all throughout 2025 and she stays at the same level looking for three straight. She does face a few in here who recently raced at The Meadowlands but that does potentially help the price. (1) BRI EXPRESS N was in tough last out, was a winner here start prior. Last year's leading trainer and driver get together on this mare. (4) VIBRANCE was racing just evenly when last at this level; Gingras returns on the Burke trainee. Race 7: NW15000 in last 5 starts Pace (4) VANDERBILT N crushed in his two starts after arriving from Down Under for the Cushing barn and while he meets another recent arrival to these shores he deserves the call to stay perfect. (3) DELE ROW A has finished close in his three starts but also burned serious money in his last couple; driver switch to Bartlett upon arrival. (2) DREAM BIRD has the advantage over others having raced last week and figures to be more involved after trailing throughout in East Rutherford.  Race 8: F&M $25,000 Claiming Pace (1) STORMY SERENA ended the year winning two in a row and three of five en route to a nice record and over $125K banked. From the rail Holland may look to take no prisoners. (4) BIG CITY DAISY is another speedy type for top connections but is stepping up a notch; still the main threat. (8) DISTANT LOVER will be a price tonight after going off favored in practically all of her recent starts. [DRF HARNESS: Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter] Race 9: F&M $20,000 Claiming Pace (5) YUENGLING has taken two straight from similar spots and driver Kelly looks to be pointed to the front again. (4) COALFORDSNSHINE GB drops back to the level of the Lachance claim from back in November and can be more competitive in this class. (2) ANIMATION has burned plenty of money in her last two. Race 10: NW5000 in last 5 starts Pace (3) HARD TO CATCH is the last of a bunch of starters over the first couple of night for the Height barn and they all have that potentially important recency edge over their rivals. This gelding looks to drop to the winning level. (2) PRINTVILLE also drops down off a couple of improved efforts and Jordan is back driving. (8) CHEVRON ART N is another recent arrival from the Southern hemisphere and he's already burned dough in his first two state-side starts.
