- DATE: July 27, 2024
- RACES ON CARD: 8
- CARRYOVERS: None
- POST TIME: 7:00 p.m.
RACE 1
| 5. No Brake Needed | Local bow was solid and show horse returned to graduate |
| 2. Cybertime | Not This Time gelding is by a sire who gets early winners, and trainer Farrior has a 30% strike rate in local maiden company |
| 4. Hurricane Jim | Half-brother to a first-out winner |
RACE 2
| 8. Big Hambone | In a race devoid of speed, this one should head right to the front |
| 4. E J’s Revenge | Nine-year-old has 101 starts under his belt |
| 6. Grand Fiber | Another nine-year-old, but with a relatively paltry 74 starts to date |
RACE 3
| 1. Same Day as L J | Won’t be hung out in the parking lot this time around |
| 3. Radar Alert | Makes second start off the bench |
| 4. Tech Duinn | Two good efforts of late |
RACE 4
| 7. Top of the Mint | Willing try last out in first in two months and can move forward off that; probably less likely to win than #6 but hoping for value |
| 1. Prota | May not be quite good enough to seal the deal, but in a race light on speed, should be in front by as many as he wants early |
| 6. I Am That I Am | All of his local tries, including latest, are solid |
RACE 5
| 5. Pink Dinghy | Galloped last time spotted against similar |
| 7. He Rolls | Shifts into Collyer barn (4/21 first after trainer switch) |
| 2. Areyougonnakissme | Excuse in latest when bumped from both sides leaving the gate |
RACE 6
| 5. Remy’s Hotshot | Cutback to 4 1/2 furlongs should help; might have best early speed of the lot |
| 4. Bull’s Legacy | Best race came at two turns, but backed out readily in last couple |
| 1. Mama Marge | Makes second start off the bench; gotta send from the rail |

RACE 7 – Syliva Bishop Memorial S.
| 2. Direct the Cat | Has dazzled in last six |
| 4. What’shername | Excuses in latest and breaks outside other speed |
| 1. Overnight Pow Wow | Full to near-millionaire Muad’dib and graded stakes winner Late Nite Pow Wow; two-turn tries just fine |
RACE 8
| 6. Simply Jack | Two-race win streak and hasn’t run a bad one since coming to CT and getting on the main track |
| 7. Bonnie Bill | Narrow winner in local bow; shifts into Carlisle barn |
| 8. Awesome Prince | Has faced better; first start in Caison barn |
