Saturday Stuff

This could be a very interesting card as we have driver changes back to the regular guys from Palone, Jamieson, et al. We do have Gre Grismore here and that will certainly change the Saturday night dynamic as it looks like he will be driving here regularly on Saturdays.
I have the night off, finishing off the family reunion weekend with my wife's family at a haunted bed and breakfast. Ooooo, verrrry scarrrry.
Good luck.

Race 1: 4 No Escape N- Racing well with Wilson in a catch-driving role; 7 White River Eagle- Probably the best horse, but he has issues from the outer posts; 3 Macinnis Seelster- Saved ground in return and may surprise tonight.

Race 2: 2 Missmally Mischief- Has improved with every outing, not sure what the bottom is, though; 4 Buckeye Jesse- Well-connected trotter makes his hoppled pm debut; 3 Ma Beep- Another solid Wollam trotter, but wait…she’s not by Full Count!

Race 3: 1 Delivered Rules- With this draw should win easily; 4 Camcoder- Grismore’s a huge plus; 7 Sammy’s Cool Win- Facing better, but needs to overcome the outside assignment.

Race 4: 1 Spirit Freeluck- Back at racing at what seems to be his best level; 6 Tooter Lane- Best mile in a long time with Charlino two back; 4 Proud Bill- Won here in 56-and-a-piece and gets Griz; 9 Snappy Sport- Beat the bottom, but I am still unimpressed.

Race 5: 4 Ideal Ticket- Made some noise two back; 5 Rd Rustler- Had excuses in last two; 6 Hershel Kiss- Veteran can still throw a good mile at you once in awhile.

Race 6: 4 Bodandy Andy- Class dropper needs to do more work; 7 Fox Valley Mavro- May be another Kinnick, but hasn’t raced from out there here; 6 Mainline Hall- Always does good work.

Race 7: 9 Iconic Style- Grismore chose this one over the 1/2/4- 4 was my initial pick; 1 Zakman- Should be solid from the rail; 5 The Long Goodbye- Has leveled in last few; 4 Category Six- Trainer Umholtz steers this one.

Race 8: 4 Giulio- Very impressive in his return; 2 Lucca’s Revenge- Got fried early last week, better fractions here? 7 Nora’s Dream T- The close last week showed a new dimension.

Race 9: 3 Knockout Sahbra- Gets his best driver in awhile; 6 Travolta- Will need to do more to repeat, but Charlino helps; 5 Night Trouble- Not sustaining his efforts, must finish stronger.

Race 10: 4 Lite Me Up- Drop from the Open should be enough; 9 Riverboat Baby- Impressed last week, driver change from Jamieson to Santantonio is interesting; 5 Intrepid Aries- Charlino chose this one who is racing well; 7 Supreme Ruler- Drops to level he dominated, post hurts.

Race 11: 3 Master Buckin Uhl- Moves up off lifetime mark, no value, but he wins; 6 Celebrity Wonder- Doesn’t always fire, but can close; 4 Samsawinner- Has improved with Lasix.

Race 12: 3 Kinnick- Who’s beaten him? Polo Joe who is in the Open and Tessallation, who’s in for $8K tag; 4 Zipsnapdrop- Move sup, but is pretty sharp himself; 6 Left’em Standing- Faces tougher, but sophomore can certainly improve.

Race 13: 2 Aquestionoftime A- Aussie jumps two classes, but can still handle these; 4 Winter Cruise- Drops two classes or so and is the main threat; 1 Artistic Dreamer- Drops, gets the rail and gets the Falcon in the bike; 5 Happy Hylight- Got Ronnie to the winners circle last start.
