Saturday stuff

No feeling on the Preakness at all, other than that Super Saver won't win. Have tempted to play Dublin if it stays dry. I will be out of action Saturday as Lil Giss graduates with honors from Cleveland State. So after keeper training and fitness training in the AM, down to the Wolstein Center for several hours and then out to dinner. Back at it live on Monday. Have a great weekend.

Race 1: 5 Moira’s Intended- Has been consistent, but hasn’t won yet; she is Courageous Lady eligible; 3 Ambush Queen- So is she, looked good until the break two Qs back; 2 Sweeping Pockets- Should be better after last week’s safe trip.

Race 2: Western Outfitter- Monstrous class relief should get him home; 2 Dd Cam Ram- Other than the choice, these are easier than $3s; 4 Goin Home Ray- Doesn’t always fire, fits if he does.

Race 3: 7 Poker Hat- Interference cost all chance in $460K Levy Final, these are a bit easier; 6 Lite Me Up- Getting his legs under him; 5 Delivered Rules- Another chance after the break.

Race 4: 5 Mainline Hall- Drops below the level of the claim, has had excuses since; 2 Kinnick- Best draw in ages, consider; 1 Liftoff Bayama- May not be able to win, but must use in exotics; 6 Eye Of The Dog- More effective when he draws better, but still could be on the ticket.

Race 5: 2 Little Old Ladywho- Solid mare draws well and last week’s were tougher; 9 Anastasia Willie- Would like him better with his nose on the gate; 3 Mickey Deez- Took pressure and tired, a better trip tonight, I think.

Race 6: 4 Vilas Blue Chip- They opened up the class for him, how is he 10-1 ML with Charlino? 5 Caramel Dumpling- Was flying late, but too far back last week at 10-1; 6 Intrepid Aries- Aaron chooses off the Loney/Conn horse.

Race 7: 1 Forever Friendly- Aaron listed on the 4/5/6, jumps off all to the #1, a rare angle, play it; 9 Road Storm- No chance with last week’s draw, better tonight; 6 Lolas Cruiser- recovered well from the break, but must stay flat here; 2 Snappy Sport- No threat, but gets a minor piece.

Race 8: 3 Seaworthy- Lukewarm call in a very well-matched, competitive group; 5 Llc- In too tough last time, fits better here; 6 Mom’s A Hustler- Usually gives effort and may be a value.

Race 9: 3 Polo Joe- Beat these last week and ends a run of bad draws; 5 The Long Goodbye- Back where he belongs, locale and class; 6 Brandon’s Art- Moves a bit further outside tonight.
Race 10: 4 Gina Marie P- Is doing good work, raced very game last time and may pay well; 5 Rapid City- Third start back and class relief, too, consider; 2 Good Goalie- Should be more competitive with this post draw; 1 Josh Seelster- Does decent work and will be forward early.

Race 11: 1 Super Max N- Has drawn worse than me and I flunked 3rd grade art class, a player from the rail; 6 Oaks Enforcer- Classy old horse’s form is improving; 2 I’ve Got Life- Not sure here, but he gets Charlino. Let’s hope there are no equipment malfunctions.

Race 12: 3 Heez Ruthelss N- One of six who could win, I think he will be a value; 6 Toronado Mindale- Versatile horse still needs a trip here; 5 Goatcoat George Tm- Class relief helps.

Race 13: 2 Winbak Len- Has had some bad luck since the barn change; 1 Sky Strikes- Will be forward from the rail, but may not be able to win; 6 Eagle Creek Patrol- Must sustain his work, usually at least does some; 9 White River Eagle- Needed his last start, but 2nd tier is a worry.
