6: Coco Loco Mama (Juarez Jr., Moreno)124/10-1

DISTINCT APPROVAL showed early speed in her last on the turf going longer. Turns back in distance and raced well at Canterbury last summer. POCO SUENOS was claimed last out by Evans off a win and Evans is 35% first off the claim. GIPSEY SORCERESS had a nice win at Tampa in January but her form has soured since that win.

2 6½ furlongs. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $33,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Cats Blame (Negron, Evans)122/10-1

3: Big League Benny (Wade, Diodoro)122/2-1

4: Dynamic Ruler (L. Fuentes, Woolley Jr.)122/5-1

5: Mine My Time (Kennedy, Diodoro)122/9-2

6: Sebastian's Boy (Juarez Jr., Martinez)117/12-1

CENTRAL PARK is three for three in his one turn races. Ran great at Tampa this winter and a return to that form will get him to the winner's circle. BIG LEAGUE BENNY will try to keep the good form going after 2 wins and a second at Turf Paradise. Diodoro will have him ready. DYNAMIC RULER has been in the mix recently for his trainer, "Derby" Woolley, who had a great opening week.

3 5 furlongs on turf. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $20,000. Purse: $19,500.

1: Lilfeatheredindian (Harr, Bethke)124/8-1

2: Shedialed Burreaux (L. Fuentes, Flores)119/9-5

3: She Glitters (Lindsay, Bethke)119/15-1

6: A Roze and Wine (Eikleberry, Bravo)124/5-2

7: Inthemistymoonlite (Hamilton, Bethke)124/9-2

A ROZE AND WINE has the advantage of two career wins as a state bred. Has early speed and a favorable post. If she likes the turf, she could be tough. SHEDIALED BURREAUX won her debut easily at Oaklawn but faces tougher today. Flores is 44% in turf sprints. LILFEATHEREDINDIAN broke her maiden at this surface/distance last summer but hasn't shown much since.

4 5½ furlongs. State bred. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Waiver claiming: $7,500. Purse: $11,500.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Beracuda Heart (Hamilton, Bethke)124/6-1

2: Rasmus (L. Biehler, M. Biehler)124/2-1

3: Otsego (Juarez Jr., M. Biehler)124/4-1

4: Awesome Pegasus (Canchari, Bethke)119/12-1

5: Mrs. D's Concerto (R. Fuentes, Donlin)119/7-2

6: Gone Cruising (Eikleberry, Bravo)124/5-1

7: Shay's Glory (L. Fuentes, McDaniel)119/10-1

RASMUS won his career debut and hoping he runs similarly off the long layoff. Looks like the controlling speed for the husband/wife team. OTSEGO is the "other" Biehler runner. Broke his maiden against open company then caught a sloppy track. Could show improvement. MRS. D'S CONCERTO is consistent but has been fading when approaching the wire.

5 1 mile on turf. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Waiver maiden claiming: $16,000. Purse: $15,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Carrillo Street (Harr, Loy)119/20-1

2: Loyal and True (L. Fuentes, M. Biehler)119/6-1

3: Daigle (Wade, Rengstorf)124/5-1

4: Sweet Holiness (Martin Jr., Loy)119/15-1

5: Metaphar (R. Fuentes, Flores)119/4-1

6: Golden Gopher (Arroyo, Berndt)119/12-1

7: Baildon (Mawing, Litfin)124/12-1

8: Princess Renee (Kennedy, Padilla)124/10-1

9: Perfect Spring (L. Biehler, M. Biehler)119/20-1

10: Note Pad (Eikleberry, Berndt)124/8-1

11: Couger (Quinonez, Perez)119/5-2

LOYAL AND TRUE has raced twice on the sod against stronger and didn't embarrass herself. Should improve off the prep race at Will Rogers. COUGER is a 3-year-old and still learning as illustrated by her last performance as she was rank early but is bred for the turf and should work out a good trip. NOTE PAD returns off a layoff but Berndt wins at 25% off such a layoff.

6 1 mile. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $10,000. Purse: $17,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Chest Candy (Juarez Jr., Woolley Jr.)124/10-1

2: May We All (Eiklberry, Broberg)124/6-1

3: Omen of Change (Kennedy, Diodoro)124/7-2

4: Calculated Risker (R. Fuentes, Litfin)124/8-1

5: Tapsolute (Lindsay, Goberdhan)124/12-1

6: My Cowboy (Quinonez, Padilla)124/4-1

7: C H Jay (Harr, Loy)124/12-1

8: Gray Admiral (Negron, Evans)124/2-1

OMEN OF CHANGE returns to his favorite oval, where he sports two wins and two seconds in four starts. Recent Diodoro claim drops in class and should be difficult to beat. GRAY ADMIRAL has been beating up softer at Turf Paradise and is being conditioned by high- percentage Evans. MAY WE ALL has six Canterbury wins and was just claimed by sharp trainer Broberg.

7 5 furlongs on turf. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Starter optional claiming: $5,000. Purse: $17,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Superior's Boy (L. Fuentes, M. Biehler)122/12-1

2: Beyond Streetsmart (Butler, Rhone)122/15-1

3: College Party (Eikleberry, Litfin)122/8-1

4: Please the Court (Quinonez, Litfin)122/8-1

5: Sequins Storm (Hamilton, Weir)122/15-1

6: Epic Drama (Valenzuela, Sanderson)122/5-1

7: Nice Work (Canchari, Heitzmann)122/4-1

8: Uncle Goyle (Juarez Jr., Kereluk)122/9-2

9: Most Amusing (Mawing, Westermann)122/5-2

UNCLE GOYLE ran very well last summer at this specialty distance posting the highest speed figures in the race. Has recency and is ready to fire. SUPERIOR'S BOY is a live longshot who appreciates the surface/distance. Could run well off the shelf. PLEASE THE COURT was claimed in his last three races at the ultra-competitive Oaklawn meet and moves to the Litfin who excels at turf sprints.

8 6½ furlongs. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden claiming: $5,000. Purse: $10,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Brookside Belle (Lindsay, Van Winkle)124/4-1

2: Haven's Joy (L. Fuentes, Woolley Jr.)124/8-1

3: Danzig Star (Canchari, Litfin)124/12-1

4: Beautiful Babe (Kennedy, Diodoro)124/8-5

5: Timber Lady (L. Biehler, Bedford)124/5-1

6: Pharaoh's Daughter (Mawing, Lawrence)124/5-2

BEAUTIFUL BABE has had many chances but moving to the Diodoro barn and adding blinkers could be the key to victory. PHARAOH'S DAUGHTER ran speed figures last summer at Parx that makes her competitive but hasn't shown that same talent in 2021. HAVEN'S JOY moves back to Woolley barn after she was claimed from him two back. He must like something about her.
