5: Chicken Truck (Valenzuela, Danger)124/6-1

6: Candy Prince (Fuentes, Rengstorf)124/9-2

7: Xtreme Mayhem (Roman, Robertson)124/5-1

CANDY PRINCE (6) is third off the long layoff for Rengstorf. Has raced on an off-track and turf in last two. Looks to use his good early speed on a fast track. MAGIC CASTLE (1) won first off the claim for the powerful Berndt barn against state breds. Returns against open company and gets the tough rail draw. XTREME MAYHEM (7) tries the dirt after three turf tries bust hasn't won since November 2020.

2 6 furlongs. State bred. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $36,000.

4: Silver Dash (Fuentes, Broberg)124/9-5

5: Sahm Tequila (Hernandez, Litfin)124/10-1

7: Blame Bishop (Arroyo, Rarick)124/3-1

SILVER DASH (4) cuts back in distance after routing on an off-track in last. Has two wins already this meet and there appears to be enough early pace to set up his closing kick. BLAME BISHOP (7) is very dangerous when he gets loose. There seems to be other speed in here but if he breaks well and clears the field, watch out. CANDY WOMPUS (1) is the "other" Broberg and should be closing late with Wade in the saddle.

3 1 mile. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $10,000. Purse: $13,500.

11: Stagecoach Boys (Roman, Berndt)119/10-1

12: Speedy Daredevil (Arroyo, Padilla)119/20-1

STAGECOACH BOYS (11) is a first-time starter for the Berndt barn that wins 21% with newbies. Is regally bred to love the grass/distance and his brother, Let's Skedaddle, has thrived locally. ANGEL'S MAGIC (1) has had many chances to graduate but has dangerous speed and the rail in an attempt to steal it. THAT'S NOT FUNNY (9) continues to improve and Berndt uses his "go-to" jockey.

5 5½ furlongs. State bred. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden claiming: $7,500. Purse: $11,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

9: Charlies Missile (Lopez, Rarick)124/6-1

LOCK IT DOWN (2) ships in from Hawthorne where she made her seasonal debut against open company and showed speed before tiring late. Faces state-breds today and drops to the lowest level. CHARLIES MISSILE (9) has struggled at the local meet while showing speed and stopping. Had good speed figures last summer. ROSEHILL ROAD (5) comes off a layoff, switches barns and was competitive last summer.

11: P Club (Harr, Kenney)124/8-1

12: Fayette Warrior (Quinonez, Bethke)124/15-1

ROCKTIZWAY (8) has tried a turf sprint twice this season and encountered traffic issues in both. Switches to Canchari who has ridden this horse with success in the past. RAY'S ANGEL (10) has won twice at this distance locally and has good early speed. If Lopez can pop the gate and clear this field from an outside post, he may repeat. OUTRUN THE POSSE (6) likes the local lawn with five career victories and will be flying late.

8: Apocalyptical Sis (Smith, Crawford)127/8-1

9: Lynnder 16 (Escobedo, Olmstead)127/5-2

LYNNDER 16 (9) has won this race in back-to-back years for top connections. Coming off a long layoff but fired first off the bench last year. APOLLITICAL MOGUL (5) has lost to her stablemate in this race the last two years while finishing second and third. If the top pick falters, she's a nice alternative. VALIANT MISS PRISS (2) is a rapidly improving filly who could surprise for top conditioner Charette-Hill.

10 Bank of America Canterbury Park Championship Stakes. 440 yards. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Purse: $50,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Danjer (Smith, Frey)127/2-5

4: Juice Is Loose (Escobedo, Olmstead)127/3-1

5: Cr Appollitical Joe (Gutierrez, Olmstead)127/8-1

DANJER (1) has won 16 of 28 in his career, has banked over $1.6M and he's trying for a three-peat in this stakes race. Enough said! JUICE IS LOOSE (4) is one of the Olmstead trio that will try to beat the top pick. Has a win/second locally in two starts and took second in this race last year. APOLLITICAL HERO (3) has been competitive for Olmstead but would need to run his career best to threaten.
