MEET STATS: 28 - 97 / $149.40
BEST BETS: 1 - 9 / $3.80
Race 1
(2) CANBEC KINGKAZIMIR has the tactical speed to rate and score over this group. (1) HURRICANE BEACH gets post relief and that should help his cause. (6) TANACIOUS ONE A can be right in the mix with a favorable trip.
Race 2
(3) ABERFORTH draws well tonight and gelding has every right to boss these with a well-judged run. (6) JUST FOR YOU has consistent speed and she fits with these; main danger. (5) GOLDEN KRONOS was a good third in his last try and he could have a say in the outcome.
Race 3
(4) RURAL ART just missed the score in his last start but he has been in the exacta picture in his last five tries; gets the call. (1) SWIFT AS A SHADOW put in a nice effort for the victory last time out; big threat. (7) WE THINK ALIKE did not have enough gas in the tank but did last for the show spot recently; do not overlook.
Race 4
(5) MIGHTY AMERICAN N made a big run in his last start so that is a major indication he is ready to fire his best. (4) OURLITTLEGENERAL A has tactical speed and he does fit with these; consider. (1) BEAST MODE is knocking at the door based on his last two trips to the post; watch out.
Race 5
(1) CATCHA LEFTY A gets serious post relief and if he can revert back to his 1/8 victory at Monticello the rest will have to settle for minor awards. (2) ABNER THE GREAT put in a nice qualifier at Freehold on 1/25. Can be ready at first asking in 2019. (5) SUNKEN TREASURE took charge at the three-quarter pole on his way to victory last time around; do not overlook.
Race 6
Sharp and consistent mare (5) SHEZ SUGARSWEET A can make tonight a winning one if she is able to get a good position early and mow them down when the smoke clears. (2) DELISHKA N did not have the best of trips last out but she was in door number seven. Now she moves to the 2-hole and that should put her right in the ballpark with these. (4) ALDINE HANOVER was sent down the road in her latest for the victory; consider for the repeat.
Race 7
(1) EMPRESS DEO gets post relief and seems to be the speed of the speed. Can take these down the road with Brennan at the controls. (3) DELIGHTFULMEMPHISN has done quite well in her last three outings and she must be considered in this event. (4) DUDESALADY takes a needed drop in class and that should help her chances; watch out.
Race 8
(7) SAIL TO THE BEACH is good enough to handle the move to the 7-hole and if she gets away cleanly she could greet the cameraman for pictures. (3) JEWEL LEHIGH A moves down a bit in class and she has tactical speed to be right in the mix with these; threat. (5) POPPY DRAYTON N took the pocket route on her way to victory last time out; must be respected once again.
Race 9
(2) FIRST CLASS HORSE is good as any in here and the pacer has the speed to take these all the way. (1) SKYFUL OF LIGHTERS has put in two solid efforts in a row and now he moves to the fence; big threat. (5) LONE RAIDER gets post relief and that might help his cause; we shall see.
Race 10
(2) SWELLENDAM has done quite well in his last two starts so he can return to his winning ways if he can get away cleanly. (5) MILLIONDOLLAR WAVE left the 3-hole to the three-quarter pole on his way to victory last time around; main danger. Dover invader (1) CASINO BAGS CARLO should be right in the thick of this from the rail.
Race 11
(3) CONSOLIDATOR might have been used up in the early stages last time out. If she reverts back to her Dover score the rest will have to settle for minor awards. (1) SOUTHWIND FERRARI closed strongly to grab the victory recently. Retains the fence so he must be respected. (6) NO RECESS took the pocket route on his way to glory last time out; consider.
Race 12
(5) BETABCOOL N flashed speed but tired badly in her last try so maybe she was used up early. If she gets a better trip she could be tough to reel in. (1) WISHY WASHY GIRL gets serious post relief and look for her to show better speed; dangerous. (8) BRING ME DIAMONDS is knocking at the door based on her last three trips to the post; not out of this.
