6: Vita Luna (Hernandez, Weidner)119/10-1
7: To Persevere (Coddington, Litfin)123/20-1
DAYDREAMING DIVA has a couple of races to build on shipping up from Arlington Park for the Robertson barn. Expect jockey Canchari to bid his time before attacking frontrunners. KODIAK RIDGE will be a key factor on the front end. LUCY GOT EVEN plunges in class off the turf and looms late.

7: La Reina de Iowa (Mojica, McShane)123/20-1
8: Empress Wildcat (Nolan, Bethke)123/15-1
BADGE OF HONOR switches surfaces in hopes of turning things around for hot trainer. Will be on or near the lead in what should be swift fractions. ORPHAN SHOES is committed to speed and comes off gate-to-wire win as the favorite. BENNY'S GIRL and HOLD THE CROWN have the best shot for upset if pace gets too animated.

6: Domikate (Cruz, Pearson)122/15-1
7: You Be Gator Bait (Hernandez, Butler)122/12-1
LOCAL REASON came up a dollar short last out while rolling late after a faulty start. BORN FORCE was runner-up last effort at this marathon distance. SIR SEARSUCKER drops for half the price and is proven at this level.

7: Demi Blue (Butler, Rhone)123/3-1
8: Hrishi Suprem (Hernandez, Danger)123/10-1
SHANGRILA BAR got off to a slow start but rushed up to grab the third spot last out. DEMI BLUE drops for half the price with decent early speed. CHRIS MARS deserves another shot after getting shuffled back at the break last race.
5 About 7½ furlongs. Turf. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $20,000. Purse: $19,000.

15: Sir Munnings (Nolan, Rarick)123/12-1
16: Vilify (Velazquez, Brinson)119/12-1
D. SHIFFLETT faced tougher competition down at Arlington Park and should be part of the accelerated pace. CLEAR THE WAY will sit behind the wall of speed as he did last effort. NORTHAMPTON KID, CABLE JETT and RARIN TO GO are must-use as legit win contenders.

8: Two Be Royal (Mojica, Rengstorf)118/5-1
9: Java Chick (Stevens, Biehler)118/8-1
SEYNATAWNEE was in waters too deep last out and should appreciate facing opponents more her level. START A RUCKUS exits same quality race and got in a tight spot early. Figures to improve with speed on the rail. EPPUR SI MOUVE seeks to improve with surface switch, wheeling back in seven days.

10: Vacation Pay (Mojica, Miller)123/10-1
11: Fast Timmy (Cruz, Weidner)123/30-1
J R THUNDER has quick early foot and will be involved from the start with Scott Stevens aboard. ADENS DREAM will prove tough to beat if he regains previous form. VACATION PAY is an interesting option coming from off the pace at a big price.
