Club One Two | 5/2 | Paul Attard trainee really responded to the stretch out last time with a dynamite maiden tally on this oval and rates a big chance right back in her debut with winners in this one. Chestnut filly by Niigon showed good tactical speed and a turn of foot in the lane, and while he did lug in some late, the filly should be stronger this time around for a conditioner who is 24% with a maiden winner last time out. Fine rail post with Tyler Pizarro riding; must use. |

Dancing Bay | 3/1 | Three-time stakes placed daughter of Sligo Bay has faced mostly better in advance of this and surely makes sense on the drop in this spot for the sharp Brian Lynch. Ontario-bred was outrun on the lawn last time but gets back on an oval that the lass has won or placed in four of five on, and the bay could get a nice trip from the second flight early on for a conditioner at 22% turf to all weather. David Moran inherits the mount. |

Otonabee | 4/1 | Consistent filly from the shedrow of Attard was a solid maiden heroine on this main oval last time and could be tough with any type of forward move in this spot. Daughter of Niigon has finished first or second in each of her trio of lifetime runs, all on this oval, and she has trained forwardly in advance of her 2013 debut for a strong layoff barn which is also 24% with a maiden winner most recently. Logical. |
10 | |
Seeking Toussaud | 6/1 | Dark bay daughter of Tap Day showed little at short odds most recently but has the back class to fit right in with this kind, and the Josie Carroll trainee could be an overlay in this affair. Three-year-old lass tops the field in Prime Power, owns good early foot, and makes the move to Jesse Campbell for a conditioner who is firing at a 26% rate at this meeting. |

Bear's Gem | 3/1 | Reade Baker trainee had a nice prep for this when third in a recent allowance race, earning a 105 Late Pace number, and the four-year-old stakes winner rates a big shot in here with even slight improvement off of her latest outing. Filly by Peaks and Valleys loves this oval with a 10-5-1-3 local mark and could shine third off the layoff here for a barn at 22% in listed stakes spots. Patrick Husbands inherits the ride and will be closing from well off the pace. |
11 | |
Rock's Sweet Thing | 20/1 | In-form daughter of Rock and roll shows a pair of wins and a nose second from a trio of recent route races on this main oval, and the four-year-old rates a chance in this affair at a big price. Don Pleterski trainee has finished in the top three in seven straight, all since adding Lasix, and she should secure a nice trip in this one while clear on the outside. Late runner will be doing her best work in the stretch beneath Gary Boulanger. |
3 | |
Moonlit Beauty | 8/1 | Multiple stakes winner has not been in lifetime form this campaign but has a ton of back class on this main oval and could be lone speed in here at a price. Seven-year-old chestnut is unplaced from four runs in 2013 but did show her customary speed last time before being outrun, though we can envision a scenario where she forgets to stop and lights up the tote board. David Moran will guide the possible separator. |

Hurricane Lorraine | 6/1 | Consistently good filly by Weather Warning was a game second in a sprint allowance here in advance of this and could get a perfect trip today going sprint to route. Dark bay Ontario-bred is a four-time local winner and also owns a pair of tallies at this distance for conditioner Alison Crook, who is just 4% at this meeting and 1-for-51 sprint to route. We'll keep this one in the exotics for the most part. |

Elusive Act | 5/2 | Has run well in both starts since returning from the layoff and exits a nice effort last out while facing allowance/optional claiming competition at Saratoga in her first start since being claimed and moved into the barn of trainer Michael Maker as she took the lead early but lacked the needed kick late and crossed the wire in second, beaten by 1 1/4 lengths while sprinting. A repeat of the BRIS Speed rating she posted in that effort would make her a contender in this spot and Maker wins with 23% of his runners going from a sprint to a route. In addition, he wins with 30% of his runners second off the claim. |
8 | |
Flattering Touch | 5/1 | Could be ready for better in her second start back from the layoff and being moved into the barn of trainer Kenneth Marshall after putting in a solid effort last out in which she rallied from four lengths off the pace but lacked the needed kick late and crossed the wire in second, beaten by 2 3/4 lengths. The filly posted a BRIS Speed rating that would make her a contender in this spot and Marshall wins with 38% of his runners making their second start out of his barn. Dylan Davis gets the call and he wins 14% of the route races he has a mount in. |
11 | |
Inspired Exchange | 12/1 | Makes the turf to dirt move in her second start back from the layoff after putting in a dull effort last out while facing allowance competition at Saratoga in which she finished a well beaten 11th. The filly is capable of better in her second start back and she should appreciate the return to the main track. Rosie Napravnik gets the call and she wins 22% of the route races she has a mount in. |
7 | |
Moonlight Caper | 9/2 | Makes the turf to dirt move in her second start back from the layoff after putting in a disappointing effort last out while facing allowance competition on the grass at Kentucky Downs in which she finished a well beaten ninth. The filly broke her maiden here on the main track in the start prior and her best will make her a contender in this spot. Trainer Kenny McPeek wins with 15% of his runners making their second start off the layoff and with 13% of his runners making the turf to dirt move. Victor Lebron gets the call and he has combined with the conditioner for a 22% win rate over the last 60 days. |

King David | 6/5 | Makes his first start since back in January when he put in a very nice effort while facing Grade 3 competition on the grass at Sam Houston in which he stalked the pace early but lacked the needed kick late and crossed the wire in second, beaten by 2 3/4 lengths. The Grade 1 winner has been working both steadily and well for his return and trainer Michael Maker wins with 20% of his runners returning from layoffs longer than 90 days. In addition, he wins 21% of the turf races he has a runner in and he will have Rosie Napravnik in the irons who wins 21% of the turf races she has a mount in. |
2 | |
Street Serenade | 6/1 | Exits a nice performance last out while facing stakes competition on the grass at Ellis in which he vied for the lead throughout but lacked the needed kick late and crossed the wire in third, beaten by three parts of a length. A repeat of the BRIS Speed rating he posted in that effort would make him a contender in this spot and trainer Michelle Lovell wins 19% of the turf races she has a runner in. In addition, she wins 19% of the allowance races she has a runner in. |
11 | |
Ray's Away | 20/1 | Has hit the board in four of five career starts thus far which includes two trips to the winner's circle. The gelding stretches out to a route in his third start back from the layoff after putting in a nice effort last out while sprinting versus allowance competition at Kentucky Downs in which he stalked the pace early but lacked the needed kick late and crossed the wire in third, beaten by 1 1/4 lengths. Trainer Lynn Whiting wins with 21% of his runners making their first attempt at a route and with 22% of his runners making their third start off the layoff. |
9 | |
Channel Marker | 10/1 | Stretches out to a route today after putting in a nice effort last out while sprinting versus allowance/optional claiming competition on the grass at Saratoga in which she stalked the pace early and finished well late to claim the victory by a neck. Trainer Albert Stall Jr. wins with 29% of his runners next out after winning their start prior and with 21% of his runners having competed in at least two sprints before stretching out to a route. In addition, he wins 21% of the turf races he has a runner in. |

Warrior James | 6/1 | Son of one of last year’s leading freshman sires Majestic Warrior has not been seen since finishing fifth at this distance at Saratoga in late July after showing speed in his first start since finishing second over six furlongs at Belmont in his first start on grass. Three-year-old posted a four furlong work in 48 seconds here six days ago for trainer Nick Canani who wins with 31% of his runners that have not raced for 46-90 days and with 28% of his starters on grass. With speed, colt can be on or near the lead from the start under E T Baird who wins with 18% of his rides on grass and who excels with front runners on this course. |
6 | |
Jimmer | 8/1 | Four-year-old comes off a fifth place finish at this level and distance after a tough trip here in mid-August when making his first start after a four month break and finished second in one of his two starts on grass. Son of good turf sprint sire Elusive Quality is first on BRIS Back Speed and is trained by Shannon Ritter who won with one of her eight runners this meet. Ritter wins with just 2% of her starters on grass but gelding has posted two bullet works at the Churchill Training Center since his last and can be a factor running from just off the pace under Edgar Perez. |
12 | |
Agave Cat | 12/1 | Gelding was caught late over six furlongs on the main track when drifting out in the stretch after leading from the start in his latest here when making his second start after a lengthy break and won one of his two starts sprinting on this turf course. Trainer John Good wins with 18% of his runners third time off a layoff and has won with 26% of his starters at this meet and son of Tale of the Cat can be in the early mix under Emmanuel Esquivel but wide post is no bargain. |
3 | |
Artful Bee | 8/1 | Son of 15% turf sire Bernstein comes off an unplaced finish after a troubled trip on the main track here two weeks ago but may be better on this turf course over which he has a record of 12-4-2-3. Six-year-old was claimed earlier in the meet by Armando De la cerda who wins with 20% of his runners on grass and who has won with 21% of his starters this meet and gelding can be closing late with Israel Ocampo aboard. |
