| RACE NUMBER | CONTENDERS | COMMENTS |
| Race 9 | 1-4-5-6 | #1 Morning Matcha (6-5): She was third last start out in the G3 Delaware Oaks. Has a great deal of back class and facing lesser today than of late for trainer Butch Reid. Needs an alert break from inside post. #4 Bazinga C (5-2): She didn’t fire in a state-bred stake on the synthetic at Presque Isle in last. She won four in a row prior to that starts. If last was a fluke, she can earn a share for trainer Tim Kreiser. Time will tell. #5 Stand Up Comic (5-1): She didn’t break very well when seventh at 15-1 in the Dashing Beauty last start. Gets class relief today and is very capable with these. #6 Princess Cupid (6-1): She was second last out against some solid foes. If she can make the lead, she can be a major player with these. |
| Race 10 | 6-12-8-3 | #6 Jump Shot (3-1): Going for four in a row since bargain claim. He has the style to stalk close to the pace against a tough field. #12 Easy Day (4-1): Won three out of his last four. Another bargain claim who lays off the pace. Threat to top pick. #8 Flat Lucky (6-1): Claimed two starts back for $40,000 at Churchill Downs by top trainer Jamie Ness. Went off favorite with lesser in last and didn’t fire. Expect improvement today. #3 Jw’s Third Mischie (5-1): He has been running with lesser but likes the lead and last two were very good. Should be able to get a share. |
