Race 2
(4) ALEXIE MATTOSIE ships to the small track, picks up Brennan and the classy veteran should fit well here. (2) SNAP TO IT A gets needed post relief and is always a threat from the inside. (3) SOMETHING FOR DOC has been showing flashes of his old self this season.
Race 3
(4) ROCK ON MOE was a big two-move winner three back at this level and the veteran can offer decent value. (3) CARTOON DADDY didn't really fire last out but his prior start was good. (1) SOHO LENNON A draws best and will be close up throughout.
Race 4
(3) MASTERSON was in a bit tough in his last two at Saratoga but the speedy Milici trainee is back at a better level tonight. (2) ALLSTAR PARTNER doesn't always win but is usually close up. (6) MAH SISH N was much better last out but needs some help from this spot; consider underneath.
Race 5
(5) IDOLE DUHARAS has had a nice season up in Canada and now ships in locally joining the Allard barn; watch the board. (4) PHIL YOUR BOOTS won out of town but has been camera-shy locally. (2) FORTY FIVE RED has good speed from a good post.
Race 6
(4) SUNFIRE BLUE CHIP returns locally off a big try in the Molson at Western Fair and the Takter trainee has a good history here. (2) BETTOR ROCK ON N showed lots of promise here earlier in the season. (3) DOCTOR BUTCH was an easy winner two back against a bit lesser and figures highly from this spot.
Race 7
(5) LONG LIVE ROCK goes second start for Allard and was a solid second last week at Pocono; Sears has options from this spot. (7) THE REAL ONE has finally found his form and note Dube drives tonight. (1) STEVENSVILLE can explode home with a ground-saving trip.
Race 8
(7) LUMINOSITY is always a solid commodity with this type and Brennan will be on the move early. (8) ALLERAGE STAR has been razor sharp for Julie Miller but she'll have her work cut out for her from this outside post assignment. (3) E R ELLIE was a big winner three back and can be considered underneath at a price.
Race 9
(7) MACHTU N qualified back nicely after that debacle in the Molson and the recent import seems to have plenty of ability; Brennan drives tonight. (2) NASSAU COUNTY has hit the ticket in his last six starts for Banca. (6) JENERAL PATTON has had a very nice year so far.
Race 10
(3) MAJOR ATHENS didn't fire last out after being in raging form for an extended period of time; Milici trainee should be able to handle these. (2) MONRY MAVEN was Bartlett's choice and he returns locally with post relief. (1) CRAZY ABOUT PAT seems better suited from off the pace; trotter could threaten with a stalking trip.
Race 11
(5) IDEALBEACH HANOVER has been solid in his two starts off the Allard claim and he may be the best price of the contenders. (1) FOOL ME ONCE gets big-time post relief. (3) SAPPHIRE CITY has speed and is a proven commodity with this type.
