Race 1
(7) DUEL IN THE SUN should find this group to his liking and he does have the speed to take these wire to wire. (4) KING ROYALTY was clearly second best in his latest; threat. (3) DYNAMITE DUDE A could land a share of the purse.
Race 2
(7) ARRAKIS moves down in the ladder and the trotter has tactical speed; can take this if he is at his best. (5) MADMAN HALL gets post relief and that should help his cause. (1) PLATOON SEELSTER took the pocket route on his way to victory recently. Despite the rise in class, he can improve for the repeat.
Race 3
(3) MARCED MAGIC catches a weak group tonight and if he gets the right trip, he can greet the camera operator for pictures. (5) ANDYS IDEAL rallied strongly to nail down the show spot in his last start; can put his best foot forward. (2) MY SPIRIT SOARS did put in a late rally for third money in his recent outing; not out of this.
Race 4
(6) THANK THE BANK seems to be heading in the right direction missing glory by three-quarters of a length last time around. She can be the boss over this group with Mr. Brennan at the helm. (1) BROWN BRINNY should be much better suited with the rail slot, gets class relief and she does have speed to boot; player. (3) PUFF MAGIC DRAGON could make some noise in the final stretch drive and it is good to see Bartlett with the drive; watch out.
Race 5
(2) GRAND MASTER is knocking at the door based on his last trip to the post where he was a game third last out; has every right to make tonight a winning one. (4) GALACTIC GALLEON N showed signs of life in his last try; big threat. Six-Year Old (1) IM A GIFT gets post relief and this should help his chances; do not overlook.
Race 6
(5) AMANDEROSA was quite sharp in her latest and she does have the tactical speed to rate and score over this group; gets the call. (1) CHEYENNE TRIENGEL put in a nice effort in her recent outing when she was a game second; dangerous from the fence. (8) BARYNYA A has two consecutive seconds at this level; post hurts but she is very capable.
Race 7
(4) SGT PAPA DADDY was second best in his last start. Gelding has good speed and gets the services of Bartlett; can take this at his best. (7) ROCK ICON has been no worse than second in his last five tries; has to overcome door number seven but he does fit with these; win threat. (3) FLYN WITH ROYALTY moves back inside and that should help his cause; not out of this this.
Race 8
(2) CHEYENNE REIJANE has wheeled off three straight victories and two at this level. Gelding seems to be the speed of the speed, so with that said he could keep on his winning ways if he minds his manners. (4) BUGSY MAGUIRE did not fire in his last try but with a favorable trip, he could be right in the hunt. (1) SWIFT AS A SHADOW gets the rail slot and this should be a good fit for this veteran; watch out.
Race 9
(4) BILLS FELLA leaves door number six, has fine speed and Brennan is keeping the faith; can top these if he is at his best. Based on his last two starts (6) MCCLINCHIE N is knocking at the door for win honors; big threat. (1) QUALITY CLOSER raced evenly last time out against tougher; can improve from the pole position.
Race 10
(1) YS LOTUS moves to Yonkers and gets the best of the draw; could rate and mow these down if he gets the right trip. (3) MACON GEORGIA A moves down the ladder and does have tactical speed; consider. (5) HORSING AROUND put in a late rally for second money recently; respect.
