3: Angiemeansbusiness (Arrieta, Metz)118/8-1

4: Pokegama (Loveberry, Padilla)118/2-1

6: Spitfire Suzie (Hernandez, Padilla)118/3-1

PRETTI XTREME is a first-time starter with a strong series of works for hot barn. SPITFIRE SUZIE has a race under her belt and outside post should work in her favor. Stablemate POKEGAMA is a new shooter and boasts a bullet drill last morning work.

2 6 furlongs. State bred. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $35,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Americas Shinning (Goncalves, Rhone)123/3-1

3: Ray's Angel (Loveberry, Biehler)123/8-1

4: May We All (Harr, Sharp)115/10-1

3 6½ furlongs. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $5,000. Purse: $12,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Tiz Meow (Arrieta, McFarlane)123/6-1

2: Drama in Danube (Butler, Sterling, Jr.)123/8-1

3: Link (Eikleberry, Sharp)123/10-1

5: Ain'tseentheball (Goncalves, Pfeifer)123/3-1

6: Overanalyzfakenews (Mojica, Diodoro)123/5-2

7: Champsachamp (Roman, Kenney)123/7-2

OVERANALYZFAKENEWS drops in for tons cheaper and will negotiate the travel from midpack. Strictly the one to beat with the drop and top barn. AIN'TSEENTHEBALL will have the target on his back as probable front-runner. Caught late last out and had to settle for place honors. SPLASH FOR GOLD got the win last out at a mile and the cutback in distance should work in his favor.

4 About 1 mile on turf. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $7,500. Purse: $14,500.

1: Laura Ray (Goodwin, Litfin)120/12-1

2: Deputy Dora (Evans, Westermann)120/10-1

3: Miss Shawhan (Hamilton, Diodoro)123/9-2

4: First Hunter (Canchari, Robertson)123/5-2

5: Cause to Wonder (Butler, Silva)120/7-2

7: Raging Gold Digger (Eikleberry, Berndt)123/6-1

8: Gattaia (Arrieta, Diodoro)123/8-1

FIRST HUNTER comes in with back-to-back wins and is capable in this spot for the trifecta win ticket. CAUSE TO WONDER is a skilled closer, but lack of group speed could be a factor. Still worth a underneath spot on your ticket. MISS SHAWHAN struggled last out after tardy start and deserves another chance.

5 6 furlongs. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance optional claiming: $15,000. Purse: $30,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

2: Kiss of Dahpespe (Mojica, Kenney)120/10-1

3: Sierrita (Lindsay, Bethke)120/8-1

4: Merri Mesa (Hamilton, Rarick)120/6-1

5: Mizzen Air (Eikleberry, Broberg)120/5-2

6: Wrap It Up (Arrieta, Rarick)123/7-2

SIERRITA is my price play of the day and has a shot if things go right. SAVVY ALLY brings speed to the table and is your most likely favorite for tough connections. WRAP IT UP won by over three lengths last out in frontrunning fashion. Capable to get the win with repeat performance.

6 About 7½ furlongs on turf. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $16,000. Purse: $16,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Lil' Red devil (Hernandez, Anderson)123/12-1

2: Atilla Katie (Goodwin, Weidner)123/20-1

4: Drane Fame (Eikleberry, Rhone)123/15-1

5: Nariz Canela (Loveberry, Rengstorf)120/8-1

6: She Looks Proud (Canchari, Hornsby)123/6-1

7: Trappiza (Mojica, Diodoro)123/3-1

8: Gio Angel (Gonzalez, Silva)120/7-2

10: Extra Gorgeous (Meche, Eidschun)120/10-1

TRAPPIZA has been banging heads with better foes out of state. ZEE RO DROP has strong turf pedigree and should be rolling from the bell. NARIZ CANELA was gate-to-wire winner last out and strictly the one to catch to cash your ticket.

7 6½ furlongs. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance optional claiming: $15,000. Purse: $30,000.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Rolls Royce Deal (Arrieta, Diodoro)123/10-1

3: London Legacy (Lindsay, Van Winkle)123/3-1

4: Awesome Emmit (Goncalves, Donlin)120/5-2

5: Unleash the Beast (Gonzalez, Silva, Jr.)120/9-2

6: Jerrys Pridenjoy (Hernandez, Richard)117/6-1

7: I'm a G Six (Loveberry, Padilla)117/15-1

2: Front Office (Lindsay, Donlin, Jr.)120/7-2

3: Ready to Forgive (Hernandez, Berndt)120/6-1

5: Johnny Runner (Gonzalez, Davis)120/8-1

6: Cape Rosso (Roman, Heitzmann)123/2-1

CAPE ROSSO drops to lowest level of his career and the confirmed closer will let others sacrifice themselves up front. SAMURAI MIKE drops in from the allowance level and will exhibit speed along the fence. JOHNNY RUNNER tries the turf experiment with very strong turf pedigree.

9 1 mile. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $10,000. Purse: $13,500.
