1: Belle of Hearts (Rivera, Silva)119/3-1

2: Demi's No Trump (Shaw, Rampadarat)123/8-1

3: Tick's Shadow (Keith, Van Winkle)123/9-2

4: Docs Miss Victory (Shepherd, Rarick)123/5-1

6: Royal Bluff (Shino, Pfeifer)123/8-5

7: Gold for Broke (Velazquez, Danger)119/12-1

ROYAL BLUFF's winless streak should end tonight with her 17th effort. Has been a money-making machine for the minor awards but seems to have found the ideal group here in the drop from maiden special weight. BELLE OF HEARTS ran her best performance last out for second. TICK'S SHADOW will be the one to catch with decent early speed.

2 About 7½ furlongs. Turf. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming $20,000. Purse: $18,000.

6: Bluegrass Lucy (Butler, Brinson)119/5-2

8: Flying Lelin (Rivera, Rarick)123/20-1

9: Cap and Trade (Shepherd, Bravo)123/5-1

BLUEGRASS LUCY gets the slight nod with with her stalking style; should enjoy cutting back in distance with Butler remaining aboard. Lost as heavy favorite last out to next out winner. MISS MY ROSIE will be rolling late and is logical late-closing threat; should enjoy class relief after facing tougher all summer. DE NOVO has good early foot to make a presence early but hasn't seen the winner's circle in a year.

3 About 7½ furlongs. Turf. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming $12,500. Purse: $13,000.

10: Hawkeye Jimmie (Hernandez, Jones)114/8-1

11: Private Warrior (Shepherd, Robertson)123/6-1

12: Levy (Butler, Brueggemann)123/7-2

KHALED AGAIN deserves to be the slight favorite in this wide-open race after finishing in the top two with both his lawn efforts; has been working well for trainer Robertson and should be tough to fend off with his closing middle move. Robertson's other runner, PRIVATE WARRIOR, drops to the lowest level of his career and will be closing late if fit enough. POLICIO usually grabs the lead but then fades; could prove tough if able to ration some of that early speed putting on the blinkers.

8: Bloomtown Baby (Goodwin, C. Smith)119/15-1

9: Cantaffordanother (Stevens, Van Winkle)119/3-1

CANTAFFORDANOTHER is a must-use in this headscratcher of a race, coming out of win and place efforts in the past two races. Should get nice stalking trip from the outside. LE CHOT CHOLIE might have turned the corner winning last out by drawing away to a two-length victory. BOOT N IT exits a winning performance but that was more than a month ago. One slow workout since.
