8: Sweet Thunder (Hernandez, McFarlane)123/9-2

9: Tizn't Over (Eikleberry, Walker)123/5-1

SWEET THUNDER gave a solid effort off the layoff running second on the sloppy course, flattered by first and third finisher's winning next out. HOLIDAY LUNCH drops for over half the price after running in holding pattern off the nine-month absence. THECAUSEWAYKID got up for second last race through a traffic-filled stretch.

7: Harlan's Sweetie (Franco, Rarick)123/6-1

8: Stillwater Storm (Keith, Oliver)123/9-2

GOLDEN ROAD has strong class edge over opponents and should be a handful to fend off down the stretch. STILLWATER STORM chased the pace last out holding the second spot and is talented enough to grab the lead with no real front runner in the group. JEFFELL ships up from Iowa after facing tougher contestants.

8: Londinium (Martin, Wolochuk)123/6-1

9: George Ray (Martinez, Padilla)123/6-1

RUN IT was a graded stakes winner four years ago and now is running at the bottom claiming level. Might have something left in the tank. GO TO THE PULPIT steps up a level after winning by seven lengths last out. BONITA ROCK and PAINT THE MOON will show early initiative and project as the duo to catch.

7: Smiling Charlie (Martinez, Robertson)117/8-1

8: Trouble'smyname (Shepherd, Turco)117/8-1

NOLANGRANT'SKITTEN ran lights-out last race with strong middle move getting up for the victory. Should have terrific position to pounce with inside draw. MODEL CITIZEN, BENERGY and IVER WITH AN E are closely matched and have battled before, expect to be in the hunt when race unfolds.

8: Law Review (Carreno, Chambers)123/3-1

9: Rocket Rebel (Martin, Heitzmann)119/9-2

LAW REVIEW should get nice setup escorting the pace with ample early speed. Had brief lead last out but was caught late. ROCKET REBEL got stuck on the rail in same race as top choice and should move forward. IS IT TRUE TERRY bobbled at the start last out but kept to task, getting up for place honors.

9: Rocky Boy (Martinez, Tracy)119/9-2

10: Single Mark (Franco, Diodoro)123/10-1

MAGGIE'S GUY shows a lot of upside and should get perfect stalking trip behind wall of speed. ROCKY BOY and GELDAUTOMAT are two speedballs that could prove ability to get the distance at the expected wicked pace.

11: Bold Advantage (Rivera, Kane)123/12-1

13: Spring to the Wire (P. Canchari, Gaede)119/12-2

IDEAL ASSCHER CUT has decent early foot to keep close to the front-runner and close in before other hopefuls. AWMA'S DIAMONDS ran a much improved effort last out, getting up for place honors; has some upside. RAPID BUSINESS, BOLD ADVANTAGE and HRISHI SUPREM are must-use in this wide-open maiden race.

11: Real Power (Martin, Heitzmann)119/8-1

12: Pegasus' Crown (Martinez, Anderson)121/20-1

SATURDAY IN MAY has beaten many of today's rivals in past two races and should exhibit early foot with nice inside position. PORFIDO should improve second off the layoff; lacks early speed but will come rolling late. REAL POWER deserves another shot after stumbling at the start last out.
