RACE 1
2. John’s Notion | Unlike rivals, already owns two wins and looks to be speed of the speed |
4. Flyin Mayan | Hard-trying second last out to 1-9 Moonlit Notion; makes second off the bench |
1. T Rex Union | If you liked this one at all heading into latest, draw a line through that after he was antsy in the gate and broke outward before chasing 3-wide |
RACE 2
2. Special Note | Might go hunting the early lead in a race light on speed; should appreciate drop to more manageable company |
3. Boundtobeok | Aptly named runner arrives off two straight wins |
8. Bravo Zulu | Second three straight versus similar |
RACE 3
5. City of Arches | Allowance waters have been too deep, but a drop in class and return to earlier form should get it done here |
2. Dream Leader | Gets trainer Grams’s go-to rider in Reynolds |
9. Sparkleinyoureye | Improved outings in last couple |
RACE 4
3. All Caps | Has won two straight and been in the money eight of 10 at the trip; has speed to make the front but doesn’t need the lead |
8. Miss Bee Bop | Dropped out of allowance company yielded an improved try in latest |
5. Crafty Windsor Cat | Return to fast track a plus |
RACE 5
5. Tearduc | Takes precipitous drop in second off the claim; trainer Farrior wins at a 44% clip going allowance to claiming at CT |
8. Music Lass | Formful sort has won two of three |
2. Thunderturtle | Nine-time winner has competed at this level |
RACE 6
8. Little Crybaby | Was moving her head around at the break and then squeezed back by rivals, but in a race where the top four didn’t come back, she was the only horse making up ground late; can move forward in third off the bench and second local start |
1. Miss Pearl Hart | Likely to head to the front again and may be able to control without quite so taxing a pace |
3. Golden Girl Lena | Nice-looking score when shifted into Figgins barn |

RACE 7
7. What’shername | Should get good trip perched off other speed and pounce when ready |
10. Runaway Beauty | Makes third start off the bench and has better to run back to |
4. Sadie the Goat | Trainer Farrior has a positive ROI first off the claim when moving horses up to allowance company at CT |
RACE 8
4. Joyful Kitten | Tough one in latest when DQed after first past the post; horse elevated to first came back to win three-life race |
3. In Retrospect | Showed improved early lick in graduation score |
2. Titian Tyrant | Declining recent form a concern but best likely good enough |
