10: Jess Send Me a Rose (Pinon, Frey)122/4-1

12: Fast Prize Jet (Montoya, Pride)122/8-1

JESS SEND ME A ROSE ran well enough in debut to take seriously and gets ideal outside post. DENIM DUST has hit the board in both starts. GO FOR GRANITE and MARYS ICE DANCER have some sharp drills in preparation of their coming-out party today.

2 350 yards. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden claiming: $6,250. Purse: $7,250.

1: Separated by a Dash (Clark, Hanson)124/8-1

9: Avoid the Drama (Delorme, Weidner)124/12-1

10: High Flyin (Cruz, Black)126/20-1

RUMBO was outmatched after losing hard-fought duel last effort. SHEZA SHAZOOM was beaten favorite last out after failing to catch a third gear late. SEPARATED BY A DASH drops a notch after being a nonfactor last two efforts.

3 5 furlongs. 2-year-olds. Maiden special weight. Purse: $32,000.

2: Devil's Teeth (Goodwin, Scherer)118/8-1

3: He's a Talker (Martin, Jr., Litfin)118/5-2

4: Keats Corner (Joubert, Hanson)118/7-2

5: Big Door Prize (S.Bethke,T.Bethke)118/15-1

6: Carosteiin (Keith, Biehler)118/6-1

8: Red Lad (McNeil, Tracy, Jr.)118/4-1

HE'S A TALKER was second best in debut while chasing the pace throughout in holding pattern. Looking at that race as educational and moving forward. DEVIL'S TEETH is lone first-timer with 5-furlong work, might pay off when things unfold. Trainer Miguel Silva sends out DIXIE NATIVE RULER and GOT EVEN SMARTER for first asking; both have encouraging worktabs.

4 5 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Waiver claiming: $7,500. Purse: $13,500.

12: Dun Dancin (Rosier, Lund)123/6-1

13: She's a Genius (Joubert, Hanson)119/8-1

14: Kitten Edition (Coddington, Diodoro)119/15-1

ANZOO takes sharp drop in hopes of breaking her maiden with ninth start. Should benefit from contested fractions while sitting off the pace and letting others settle the difference in front of her. SHE'S A GENIUS was beaten favorite but ran career best last out getting up for place honors. Trainer Diodoro sends out stablemates STUNNING CAT and DIVINE INVENTION, both training smartly for their initiation to racing.

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Asi Si (Mojica, Bravo)123/4-1

2: Cernobbio (Velazquez, Brinson)123/8-1

3: James T. (Butler, Turco)123/5-1

4: Erlenmeyer (Martin,Jr., Craddock)123/6-1

6: Change Anything (McNeil, McKinley)123/15-1

7: Cutter Mountain (P.Canchari, Van Winkle)123/20-1

8: Charlie Again (Franco, Robertson)123/5-2

JAMES T is the class of the field and could prove tough if regains last-year turf form. Likes to sit in the back of the pack touring the course before making one big final kick. CHARLIE AGAIN will be forwardly placed on or near the pace as usual custom, faded to second last two out, failing to hold lead. ASI SI figures to be in the hunt down the stretch gathering late momentum from midpack.

7 1 mile, 70 yards. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $30,000.

1: Discreet Investor (Martin,Jr., Padilla)118/10-1

2: Tiger D (Butler, Rhone)123/7-2

3: Hot Rod Red (Mojica, Bravo)118/10-1

4: Flawless Forecast (Rosier, Tubbs)118/15-1

5: Warren's Nicholas (McNeil, Diodoro)123/8-5

7: Sammy's Mineshaft (Delorme, Padilla)123/8-1

WARREN'S NICHOLAS shoots for his fourth straight win stepping up in class with loads of confidence. COPPER HILL has hit the board in last eight starts and is as tried-and-true as they come. Might be the one controlling the speed on the lead. TIGER D puts the blinkers on while jumping off the turf after a couple of so-so efforts. May be the new game plan that gets him in the end zone.

8 1 mile, 70 yards. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden special weight. Purse: $28,000

#: Horse, Jockey, TrainerWt./Odds

1: Lowen Warrior (Rosier, Sharp)118/6-1

3: Rarin to Go (Velazquez, Biehler)118/3-1

4: Pot Liquor (Franco, Stuart)118/12-1

5: Clear the Way (Martin,Jr., Diodoro)118/4-1

6: Haywire (Delorme, Van Winkle)118/6-1

7: Hay Dakota (Castro, Berndt)118/8-1

9: My Kingdom (Mojica, Lund)118/8-1

RARIN TO GO looks to rebound after getting DQ'd last out for some bumping before the wire. Should be plenty fit to run a strong race and get paid top dollars. LOWEN WARRIOR takes sharp drop in class shipping up from Kentucky for the Sharp barn; most likely pace setter will be hanging in early with fighting chance hanging on late. BLUFFS EDGE could move forward after being rewarded for minor award last out off the extended layoff; he's been freshened up since.

9 6 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $4,000. Purse: $10,000.
