In his season opener against optional $40,000 company he broke slowly and failed to threaten after racing three-wide; he may take some beating on the class drop. #8 I HAVE HOPE had a wide journey on turf in his local opener, finishing fifth in a strung-out field. If he handles the synthetic he should be competitive with this group. #2 JORDAN’S WAY had a good effort against $4,500 foes around two turns on the Fort Erie turf two starts ago, then ran an okay fifth sprinting locally.

She drops in value here but may take some pressure from any of the three foes to her outside. #6 BENEVIDA was also part of the pace in that July 11 race. Win-shy mare certainly warrants a look but will need a better trip. #4 STORMY VISION was a good second in a soft group of non-threes in her first start after being claimed back by the William Armata back.

If the early pace is contested she could be a rallying threat. #5 DOLLY STORMY runs her best when she gets covered up behind horses, something she was unable to do in her season opener on the inner turf. She has a lot of back class and would not come as a surprise with the right trip. #8 ORBITING THE SKY pulled off an upset when winning a $7,500 non-three in her local debut.

The rail is in Lane 4 for his turf debut; if he is quick enough to clear to the lead and is able to handle the grass he could be very tough to beat. #2 LAST SENSATION had a positive debut over the turf, then was close to a clustered pace and evened out over the main track second time out. Although beaten 15 lengths in that spot he was beaten only three for the show spot and may fly under the radar here. #4 BETTER BOOGIE rallied to be a good second behind a lone-speed winner in his most recent try on June 28. He has hit the board in four straight attempts. #10 STRIKE A BEAT was a well-beaten third in a maiden special weight going 1m1/16 on June 20. He drops in for $40,000 and shortens up to a sprint; his closing style and wide post could work against him with the rail out in Lane 4.

Race 1

#7 Bread Crumbs

#6 Maritime Magic

#8 I Have Hope

#2 Jordan’s Way

#7 BREAD CRUMBS has been in flat in two sprints

against tougher this season. His best race to date came

in his only try around two turns over this surface. #6

MARITIME MAGIC plunges in for $7,500 for his first try

over the Tapeta. In his season opener against optional

$40,000 company he broke slowly and failed to threaten

after racing three-wide; he may take some beating on the

class drop. #8 I HAVE HOPE had a wide journey on turf

in his local opener, finishing fifth in a strung-out field. If he

handles the synthetic he should be competitive with this

group. #2 JORDAN’S WAY had a good effort against

$4,500 foes around two turns on the Fort Erie turf two

starts ago, then ran an okay fifth sprinting locally. With a

good trip she could be along for a share at a big price.

Race 2

#1 Carolina Grace

#5 Finest Jewel

#6 Benevida

#4 Stormy Vision

#1 CAROLINA GRACE has had two decent starts

sprinting on the main track to begin her season. She a

better horse both routing and turfing and could get a very

good trip from the rail post. #5 FINEST JEWEL was part

of a bizarre cat-and-mouse pace battle in her local debut

on July 11, flattening out in the stretch. She drops in

value here but may take some pressure from any of the

three foes to her outside. #6 BENEVIDA was also part of

the pace in that July 11 race. Win-shy mare certainly

warrants a look but will need a better trip. #4 STORMY

VISION was a good second in a soft group of non-threes

in her first start after being claimed back by the William

Armata back. She looks competitive once again.

Race 3

#6 My Cantata

#1 Afleet Connection

#5 Dolly Stormy

#8 Orbiting the Sky

#6 MY CANTATA had a much improved effort in her

second start of the campaign, running second behind

Bear Kitty. 10 time winner should be close to the pace

and looks logical. #1 AFLEET CONNECTION was an

even fifth when returning on 11 days rest in the same July

9 race My Cantata exits. If the early pace is contested

she could be a rallying threat. #5 DOLLY STORMY runs

her best when she gets covered up behind horses,

something she was unable to do in her season opener on

the inner turf. She has a lot of back class and would not

come as a surprise with the right trip. #8 ORBITING THE

SKY pulled off an upset when winning a $7,500 non-three

in her local debut. Three year old filly puts her undefeated

record on the line in her first start outside of conditioned

company but should be close to the pace and has

confidence on her side.

Race 4

#7 Big Executive - Best Bet

#2 Last Sensation

#4 Better Boogie

#10 Strike a Beat

#7 BIG EXECUTIVE has been part of two clustered

paces and given way to be third both times. The rail is in

Lane 4 for his turf debut; if he is quick enough to clear to

the lead and is able to handle the grass he could be very

tough to beat. #2 LAST SENSATION had a positive debut

over the turf, then was close to a clustered pace and

evened out over the main track second time out. Although

beaten 15 lengths in that spot he was beaten only three

for the show spot and may fly under the radar here. #4

BETTER BOOGIE rallied to be a good second behind a

lone-speed winner in his most recent try on June 28. He

has hit the board in four straight attempts. #10 STRIKE A

BEAT was a well-beaten third in a maiden special weight

going 1m1/16 on June 20. He drops in for $40,000 and

shortens up to a sprint; his closing style and wide post

could work against him with the rail out in Lane 4.

Race 5

#3 Priceless Will

#8 Speedy Moonlite

#7 Dealmaker

#5 Mr Will

#3 PRICELESS WILL was well clear of the rest when

finishing a non-threatening second behind Red Hierarchy

on July 12. He should have plenty of pace to close into

for his second start of the campaign. #8 SPEEDY

MOONLITE was a very good second in his debut against

maiden special weight company. He was a late scratch

when entered again at that level on July 19 and now gets

to face optional $40,000 foes. #7 DEALMAKER made the

lead but could not hold off the heavily favoured Bend in

the River on July 19. That was a major wake-up effort

after two disappointing tries last year; we’ll see if he

continues to move in the right direction. #5 MR WILL was

a game second when debuting for $25,000 on July 2. He

could earn a share on the class rise.

Race 6

#1 Downy Boy

#5 Conquistador

#4 Now We Are Nine

#3 Whiskey Victor

#1 DOWNY BOY was a non-threat but passed a few foes

when facing first level allowance company in his season

opener over the main track. He ran well in all three of his

turf tries last year and should appreciate the drop in

class. #5 CONQUISTADOR made the lead and was able

to score an easy win over the Tapeta on July 5. There is

some other speed in here but if he is able to outsprint

them to the lead he may prove too tough to run down. #4

NOW WE ARE NINE has had two positive races at big

odds since going off of Lasix. He was scratched from a

starter optional claiming race on July 26 but should fare

better against these non-threes anyways. #3 WHISKEY

VICTOR came up empty as a narrow favourite when

facing optional $40,000 foes around two turns on the

inner turf. He drops in value after nearly seven weeks off;

his only try around one turn was his debut at Belmont.

Race 7

#1 Lion’s Goldenheart

#2 Self Inflicted

#4 Matinee

#8 Hard n’Sweet

#1 LION’S GOLDENHEART has had two even efforts

against first level allowance company to kick off the year.

He had a good start over this course last year; although

he broke his maiden (by DQ) over the Tapeta I think he is

a better turf course and has not hooked the toughest

group here. #2 SELF INFLICTED was a good third over

the E. P. Taylor course in his season opener then

finished midpack on the main track three weeks later. He

should be able to work out a good trip here. #4 MATINEE

was a clear second best in his season opener over this

course but was awarded the win via disqualification. If he

steps forward in his second start off of the layoff he could

contend. #8 HARD N’SWEET ran second over the

Tampa turf in his career debut then came back to romp

against $16,000 three year olds in an off-turf event. His

local debut is his first start outside of age-restricted

company; he may show some speed from the outside.

Race 8

#1 Classy Mistress

#2 Queen’s Speed

#10 Hello Friends

#9 Rolling Sloan

#5 Glamourous Girl

#1 CLASSY MISTRESS was slammed at the break, fell

well back from the pack but came running in the stretch

when debuting on June 27. Blinkers are added; with a

clean start and better position she could be a factor. #2

QUEEN’S SPEED has been in good form from the start

of the season. She has had tough posts in her last two

starts; she may be tough with a much better draw today.

#10 HELLO FRIENDS was a good second behind a well-

meant second time starter in her turf debut on June 27.

She can show a little bit of speed which could help her

find position from a tough post. #9 ROLLING SLOAN has

had two decent efforts over the synthetic to behind her

career. She tries turf and has potential to improve as she

gains experience. #5 GLAMOUROUS GIRL had to

steady leaving the chute to avoid an incident in her most

recent try on July 12 and never really got into the race.

She may offer a good price in her turf debut.
