Tell them Giss sent you. Good Luck!


Race 1: 2 B Afflicted- Gets a slight call in well-matched group for McKirgan; 1 Pray To Me- This could be a record exacta- Don is 70, Eldon 84; 8 Moms Imp- Class relief, but assigned outside.

Race 2: 3 Fast As You- Hasn’t been as fast as many, but this seems a soft spot; 5 High Gear Speed- Improving, but needs to be closer early; 1 Freedom Hall- Class dropper has speed.

Race 3: 6 Sunrise Sunset- Drops to the level of her last win and has upside at three; 2 Canaco Kubota- Very competitive in this class; 3 Hershel Kiss- Killer beak last time, another chance.

Race 4: 4 Here’s Hooter- Needed that last start and should be tighter tonight; 3 Three Sox Missing- Always on the ticket, rarely winning, though; 5 Eagle Jacob- Is better than the lines show, consider; 6 Hope To Finish- Improving in his last couple and could add some value.

Race 5: 3 Chust Chudy- Tough trip last time, but she can beat these on memories alone; 2 Mr Sam- Moves up, but does almost everything right; 6 Final Scorpion- May go forward for Jordon.

Race 6: 4 My Mystique- Not 100% sold on her, but might be the best of these; 6 That Sam I Like- Gets a tag and a bad break racing against experienced mares; 1 Iknowwhatboyslike- Recent form is questionable, but she should contend form the rail.

Race 7: 2 Robin Dontget- Has been closing well and may be closer earlier here; 1 Foo Too- Streaky and always races well at the end of fair campaign; 5 Jakey Boy- Has raced better at this level lately; 3 Inquisitive Me- Becomes a factor back with a competitive post draw.

Race 8: 2 Mcfriendly- A weird ETE, and just a hunch he will perform; 5 Speak To Me Easy- Big improvement last time and now gets Sugg; 1 Race Track Cruiser- Has a chance from the rail.

Race 9: 1 Oceana Hanover- Solid mare gets in at $320, not $300; 6 Senator Sam- Solid youngster from a solid trotting man; 2 Prime Number- Moving into a positive form cycle.

Race 10: 5 Cambest In Motion- Almost always gives effort and should get the W; 1 Beans And Weenies- Looks like a different animal the last two month or so; 2 Leroy Mot- To be or Mot to be, break in last concerns; 6 Lincoln N- Inconsistent, but contends with his best.

Race 11: 4 Jl Nate The Great- Has been very good and draws fine; 9 Jack Maverick- Racing just as well as Nate, but 2nd tier hurts; 6 Hanko Merit- Has merit here, but needs the right trip.

Race 12: 6 Liftoff Bayama- Eligible at time of entry off an impressive win, track was bad 11/6; 3 Hoosier Lion- Solid win at the bottom, will he bounce? 9 Pacificam- Gets needed class relief.

Race 13: 2 Pan Au Chocolat- I like Muhammad Ali better, but Kurt didn’t, he chose this one; 1 Muhammad Ali N- Has been racing well, but Sugg chose off; 9 Bodandy Andy- Racing a bit better last two; 4 Heez Ruthless N- Solid, professional campaigner. Should be on the ticket.
