5: Eyesa Playmate (Eikleberry, Livingston)124/5-1
6: Irish Brew (Swiontek, Livingston)124/3-1
IRISH BREW has been training well and grabs the perfect outside position in first QH race of the season. JUSTA BUMP improved in each start last year and looks to keep the momentum going as a deserving favorite. DIRT ROAD QUEEN should be right in the mix with a clean break.

6: Apollitical Flight (Luark, Olmstead)122/6-1
7: Prince of Ivory (Olesiak, Johnson)122/5-1
DAKOTA VERSION ran well in lone start to get up for third last month at Remington Park. APOLLITICAL FLIGHT failed to menace in first attempt against tougher so could improve with drop in class. CAPTIVATING CARA has hit the board in both starts against weaker.
3 5 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming $20,000. Purse: $19,000.

1: Iver With an E (Canchari, Robertson)123/4-1
2: Art Official (Hamilton, Padilla)123/7-2
3: Leo's Lookin (Lopez, McFarlane)119/4-1
4: Chucky Luv (Olesiak, Roberts)119/9-2
5: Diamond Okie (Shepherd, Oberlander)123/3-1
6: Tiz Happens (Eikleberry, Oberlander)119/9-2
ART OFFICIAL should get perfect stalking trip behind field full of front-runners at what should be a brisk pace. Merits respect for new barn that wins at a 25 percent clip sending out new claims. TIZ HAPPENS is one of the speedballs trying turf for first time, and pedigree suggests 3-year-old should enjoy the grass. IVER WITH an E will be late closing threat but probably enjoys running longer; jockey/trainer duo are always dangerous.
4 5 1/2 furlongs. open. Maiden claiming $10,000. Purse: $12,000.

5: This Is the Bizz (Rivera, Bethke)123/6-1
6: Crow River Dancer (Canchari, Bethke)123/5-1
TWO CHANCE could improve in third start off the layoff after wheeling back in seven days. Might show early initiative off the rail with group full of closers. SAM'S SILVER STAR got up for third with nice middle move on opening night and looks to move up the purse money ladder with significant drop in class. CROW RIVER DANCER too drops in class from opening night and gets top jockey at the helm.
5 7 1/2 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance optional claiming $25,000. Purse: $30,000.

8: Big Team Little Me (Hernandez, McFarlane)121/8-1
9: Congrats and Roses (Canchari, Robertson)119/4-1
NENA'S NINER comes off a win on the grass at Turf Paradise with the best speed numbers in the field, giving her the slight nod in this deep field. Mac Robertson sends out two with CONGRATS AND ROSES and DEAR FAY, both coming off eight-month layoffs. Robertson is dangerous bringing his runners off the bench. ENLIGHTENED is a dangerous closer with huge class relief.
6 1 mile 70 yards. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $28,500.

5: Lila Grace (Hamilton, Biehler)121/5-1
6: Grayrock (Olesiak, Turco)121/6-1
7: Miss My Rosie (Canchari, Robertson)121/7-2
ADONICA drops in class and figures to improve after being a nonfactor after a pinched start last out. Won three consecutive before that mishap. LILA GRACE should improve returning to dirt after finishing off the board in turf race. Talented enough to hound the pace. MISS MY ROSIE will try to make one closing run from nowhere on the outside.
7 1 1/16 miles. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance optional claiming $25,000. Purse: $30,000.

6: Cell Line Forever (Martinez, Rarick)121/9-2
7: Talkin Bout (Martin, Scherer)119/4-1
8: Acarpian (Stevens, Diodoro)119/8-1
VONN NEZ will be closing late as is custom with this 6-year-old mare who has hit the board in last seven starts. Jockey/trainer duo are 2 for 2 to start the meet. NORA'S SONG moves up in class coming off a win at Lone Star Park. ACARPIAN, TALKIN BOUT, and CELL LINE FOREVER are major players in what should be best race of the day.
8 6 1/2 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden claiming $6,250. Purse: $10,500.

8: Southern Justice (Dieguez, Silva)119/10-1
9: Cleardofallcharges (Carreno, Diodoro)119/9-2
PROUD COMET cuts back in distance and could shake loose as lone speed if surface transfer from poly to dirt goes well. CLEAROFALLCHALLENGES ships in from Santa Anita after facing much better and should also enjoy cutting back in distance. TIZN'T OVER drops in from two classes as deep closer and appears to be the one to beat.
