6: Panther Prize Me (Shepherd, Johnson)124/7-2

7: Smarties (Golibrzuch, Miller)124/9-2

EAGLE RISING dueled but faded last out but should improve second time off the layoff for top QH trainer Hardy. SMARTIES last effort was a clear victory on the local venue last August. PANTHER PRIZE ME has been training well off the long absence.

14: Pilatus (Eikleberry, Keen)121/4-1

15: Mostly Mozart (Eikleberry, Scherer)117/8-1

CASTLEDERG will be my top selection if he gets in off the AE list. Gelding has been facing stronger fields down south and will get perfect pace scenario to cut loose on with his strong closing kick. SIR SEARSUCKER enters with three consecutive wins under his belt and now steps up a level against the big boys. ETON RIDGE has class advantage over most his rivals and now stretches out after sprint win last out while drawing away.

7: Archarchmonarch (Murphy, Bolinger)123/4-1

8: Orfan Ole (Swiontek, Kane)123/3-1

PLENTY OF SUN was second best in debut after advancing the long way around the track. Expect jockey Franco to sit off the pace as the huntsman for first shot at the pace setters. I expect ORFAN OLE and ARCHARCHMONARACH to hook up in early duel coming from their respected outside posts, both finished second last out after leading late.

6: Redneck Richie (Murphy, Cole)123/12-1

7: Frankie Dapper (Olesiak, Butler)123/10-1

8: Five Seasons (Carreno, Diodoro)123/9-5

FIVE SEASONS appears the one to beat with his favorable speed figures shipping up from Oaklawn Park, slight concern of giving way and coming up empty last out. TRUCKIN did just that with strong driving win last out at Turf Paradise, should enjoy extra furlong with his late rush. GEORGE RAY is consistent runner who is usually hanging around down the stretch.

8 6 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Fillies and mares. Claiming $6,250. Purse: $10,500.

5: My Best (Fackler, Turco)119/20-1

7: Hiteckboogie (Murphy, Keen)123/3-1

8: Sudden Tempest (Butler, Sheehan)123/12-1

ORIENTAL SECRET drops for over half the price shipping up from Tampa Bay Downs, look for the filly to come from off the pace leaving others behind. GOLDEN CARAT won her lone start while flying late and getting her picture taken, no reason not to duplicate that effort. Stablemate COUNTRY COUNTESS, too won last out for trainer Silva and should be forwardly placed pursuing the front runners.

6: Regal Rival (Delorme, Pfeifer)118/15-1

8: Hummin Through (Escobar, Donlin)118/12-1

MACHO STORM ducked at the break last out but rushed up for improved position to get up for third. Needs better gate exit on the stretch out to two turns to save some energy for later stages. LOCKEDUPFOREVER and STEVIEFROMSTANLEY also stretch out to two turns and could enjoy the longer distance after a couple of hum-drum efforts sprinting.
