Purse: $20,000. #/Horse, Jockey, Trainer Wt.Odds 1/Royal Mocha, Canchari, C. Smith1135-1 2/Gambit's Delight, Riggs, Robertson1185-2 3/Whoswilderthanme, Goodwin, Wessels1182-1 4/J T's Gold, Stevens, Wilson1186-1 5/Inspired Demi, Garnett, Winget11820-1 6/Demidoffpicture, Prado, Winget11815-1 7/Wonder About Lola, Bell, Robertson1157-2 WONDER ABOUT LOLA gets Bell aboard with two nice five-furlong workouts entering. GAMBIT'S DELIGHT gets Riggs to ride and perfect post position to fire out quickly if chooses. WHOSWILDERTHANME has two races coming in, including a much-improved effort on a muddy track last race. 2nd race 1 mile, 70 yards. 3 year-olds and up. Maiden claiming $5,000. Purse: $9,000. 1/Sammy Ray, Arroyo, Conde12330-1 2/Mendon Mountain, Velazquez, Lund1205-1 3/Chatty Lou, A. Canchari, L. Canchari1185-1 4/Double Tall, Dieguez, Conde1234-1 5/Moeka, Delorme, Riddle1236-1 6/Jr Hills, J. Rivera, McFadden1239-2 7/Smart Masterpiece, Riggs, Berndt1209-5 SMART MASTERPIECE on paper appears the one to beat and should get the perfect stalking trip starting from the outside post and pouncing when asked. Best chance yet to break maiden. DOUBLE TAIL finished behind Smart Masterpiece for third weakening down the stretch. Must use for exacta/trifecta tickets. JR HILLS ran fourth to top two selections and is another must use on exotic tickets. 3rd race 1 mile, 70 yards. Fillies and mares. 3 year-olds and up. Claiming $3,500. Purse: $9,000. #/Horse, Jockey, Trainer Wt.Odds 1/Ilimitado, Goodwin, Sheehan1238-1 2/One More Palo, Delorme, Martinez1237-2 3/Tiger Grove, Velazquez, Courtemanche1234-1 4/Gazettes Girl, A. Canchari, Robertson1189-2 5/Doug First Lady, Riggs, Tracy Jr.1235-2 6/Cryptic Affair, Butler, Weidner1235-1 7/Jaylind, Prado, Martinez12315-1 DOUG FIRST LADY comes up from Prairie Meadows with decent early speed and trainer Tracy lures Riggs to ride, so good enough for me. CRYPTIC AFFAIR needs to find last year's form to win here and has the perfect field to turn it around today with Butler at the helm. GAZETTES GIRL had troubled trip last out and should be a factor if improves position with a clean trip. 4th race 6 1/2 furlongs. State-bred. Fillies and mares. Claiming $10,000. Purse: $14,820. 1/Chile Win, A. Canchari, S. Miller1206-1 2/Cinder Ellie, Stevens, Oliver12315-1 3/Souper Four, Delorme, Donlin1235-1 4/Siften Gold Nugget, Velazquez, Peters12015-1 5/Gracen Racen, Riggs, Scherbenske1208-5 6/Wild in Rio, Dieguez, Bethke1206-1 7/Blues Edge, Butler, Rhone1207-2 8/Caboosian Lass, Franco, Silva12312-1 GRACEN RACEN will be the heavily bet favorite who could be tough opponent if runs back to last speed figures. Riggs will have the filly sitting off the pace ready to attack. BLUES EDGE has the best chance to upset the favorite, who won in debut closing fast to win by a half-length. Should return well-rested enjoying the added distance. CHILE WIN could surprise if regains form from two back where she took the lead and never looked back. 5th race About 11/16 miles. Turf. Fillies and mares. 3 year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $21,000. 1/Number One Gal, Shino, House1179-2 2/Ensorcel, A. Canchari, Robertson1166-1 3/Diamond City, Velazquez, L. Canchari12120-1 4/Ready Love, Walker Jr., Barton1214-1 5/She's the Cat, Rhone, Arterburn1215-1 6/Morgans a Blumin, Bell, Robertson1215-2 7/Attar of Rose, Keith, Lund1217-2 SHE'S THE CAT has a good chance to steal this race up front as lone speed with a bunch of closers. Might lull the field to sleep while getting easy fractions saving something in the tank to hold on for win. MORGANS A BLUMIN is still looking for her first win this meet and is the most probable favorite once again. Will be rolling late picking up the pieces. ATTAR OF ROSE comes out of the Lund barn, which might decide to have its mare sit closer to the pace for first jump on the front-runner with Lori Keith aboard. 6th race 6 furlongs. 3 year-olds and up. Claiming $5,000. Purse: $10,500. 1/Unlawful Detainer, Butler, Rhone1237-2 2/Just Say It, Walker Jr., Rarick1213-1 3/Dont Worry Bout It, Riggs, McShane1215-1 4/Revitalize, Delorme, Hop1208-1 5/Slew the Tiger, J. Rivera, Weidner12120-1 6/Resley Creek, A. Canchari, C. Smith11620-1 7/Grey Stream, Goodwin, Scherer1186-1 8/World of Color, Shino, Jensen12115-1 9/Sugar Peaks, Rhone, Arterburn1218-1 10/I've Got Steam, Aguilar, Brocka12110-1 JUST SAY IT has hit the board in 10 of past 11 efforts but with no wins. Speed figures tower over the field and should get the win for trainer Rarick, who is getting hot towards the end of the meet. UNLAWFUL DETAINER circled the field last out four-wide to get the victory. Best threat for the upset. DONT WORRY BOUT IT needs to break the bad gate habits from past two starts to be in the hunt. 7th race About 11/16 miles. Turf. 3 year-olds and up. Claiming $16,000. Purse: $16,000. 1/Red Shoes, Goodwin, Kirby12115-1 2/Thunderdo, Stevens, Rhone12310-1 3/Chisenau, Franco, Silva12112-1 4/Cat's Classy Rider, Riggs, Hartman1176-1 5/Ming Glo, A. Canchari, L. Canchari1188-1 6/Broken Aero, Morales, Sweere1239-2 7/Far Flung, Castro, Silva12115-1 8/Jix, Shino, Pfeifer12115-1 9/Whiskey Decision, Delorme, Porter12310-1 10/Rajablou, Butler, Rosin1215-1 11/Corporate Charlie, Keith, Mankin1214-1 12/Hurricane Houston, Rhone, Porter12115-1 RAJABLOU almost stole the race last out up front at a huge price and finds himself as lone speed again and now gets top jockey Butler to ride. Realistic assignment in trying to steal it. BROKEN ARROW will be in the mix as usual. Enters with two wins and a place, and the place was because of traffic problems. MING GLO blew up most Pick 4 tickets last out at a huge price. Has good shot to repeat but we won't get that price. 8th race 6 furlongs. Fillies and mares. 3 year-olds and up. Maiden claiming $10,000. Purse: $11,000. 1/Lady Shackleton, J. Rivera, Hartman12020-1 2/Nina's Hope, Velazquez, Wekseth12320-1 3/Soul Digger, Franco, Silva1204-1 4/Static Charge, Goodwin, Scherer1203-1 5/Scat On, Delorme, Martinez12330-1 6/Glacier Island, Stevens, Rhone1237-2 7/Racine Belle, A. Canchari, L. Canchari11815-1 8/Defiant Lady, Arroyo, Feilner II12330-1 9/R Perks, Riggs, Wilson1209-5 R PERKS is the logical favorite but is by no means a lock. Won two back but was brought down after DQ, then lost by a neck in her next race. Should get the perfect stalking trip to get the win today. GLACIER ISLAND cuts back in distance and class coming off the turf for the Rhone barn. Ranked tad below top pick and should be within striking range down the stretch. STATIC CHARGE also comes off the turf and takes plunge in class with early speed. Follow Love at www.exoticplays.com or @StribLove on Twitter.
