6: Offers Are Cheap (Stevens, Smith)118/12-1

7: Distorted Ballad (Velazquez, Hartman)118/5-1

Kind of a blind bet to start the card with a field of many questions. IDLING deserves top billing with two decent lone starts as the veteran of the group with two freshened-up works coming in. VELOCITY and DISTORTED BALLAD are the two newbies I'll use on the ticket who show the best series of training sessions.

5: Clear to Canada (Canchari, Silva)119/5-1

6: Pork Chop (Velazquez, Hartman)119/15-1

8: Senor Captain (Bell, Pfeifer)117/6-1

MON COEUR is lone starter with 80-plus speed figures this season and pressed the pace last out before taking over for impressive victory after long absence; should keep moving forward. DELIGHTED DISCIPLE cuts back a notch in distance and level and too is coming off a win after stalking the pace. Look for THATLLEAVEAMARK and FREE SAILING to clash up front knocking heads for the lead.

7: Jack and Max (Velazquez, Scherer)123/8-1

9: Ready to Roll (Butler, Riecken)119/12-1

Should get a nice price on JACK AND MAX, who will be closing from far back as he did last out vs.tougher; should get quick fractions as the race unfolds to swoop on. RUSTIC ROAD won two back as front-runner, then chose to sit back last out with off-the-board results: hopefully went back to the chalkboard. LITTLEBROWNROAD closed from far back to land in second last out and is expected to be in the mix down the stretch.

4 about 7 1/2 furlongs. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming $10,000. Purse: $16,000.

7: Blast'em (Franco, Silva)119/12-1

9: Grizzled Robert (Canchari, Robertson)119/8-1

10: Bravo Prado (Keith, Biehler)119/10-1

Evenly matched turf race that should play out like a chess game but I give slight nod to LOST CAMPER who won last effort sitting off the pace before taking over down the stretch for the win; encouraging works since. DONTRATTLEMYCAGE tries the turf experiment for the first time tonight in his four year racing career and is bred well for the grass; could be a handful. BATON ON FIRE should enjoy cutting back in distance; won at this short two turn race two back.

9: Regards (Eikleberry, Hanson)118/5-2

10: Gottcha Silver (Shepherd, Johnson)118/20-1

REGARDS had the best debut of the returning starters in this baby group, getting off a step slow last out but recovering and running for show money. BRICK ALLEY begins racing career with a solid series of works for trainer who enjoys winning at first asking. SAVIORMONEY flashed early speed before weakening in debut.

6 about 1 1/16 miles. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming $20,000. Purse: $19,000.

7: Thrice Nice (Butler, Rhone)123/7-2

8: Ciao Valentina (Stevens, O'Callaghan)118/6-1

THEATRE OF DREAMS could steal this race as lone speed off the rail with a field full of closers at a big price. MY DIXIE DOODLE has class edge over many today and is coming off a win on the off track. ACARPIAN and THRICE NICE are the logical deep closing threats and will be tough to fend off.

7 1 mile 70 yards. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden claiming $6,250. Purse: $10,000.

5: Streak N Hot (Shaw, Haglund)126/5-2

6: Beautys Prince (Goodwin, Kane)126/8-1

WESTERN FUN comes off a tough stakes win beating a few of today's rivals. EXPLOSIVE GUNS recorded his best career speed numbers last two races and should be a force today. TRES MY TRACKS got mugged at the start last out and should be free of that starting on the rail today.
