Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: BIG N BAD
Odds: 9-2

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: MIKEY BOY
Odds: 10-1

Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: REAL ROXY
Odds: 5-2

Race 1 Comments:  In a field that’s a combined 8 for 209 over past two years, THOR drops and looks like my best guess, despite outside draw, in weak opener.

Race 2

Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: AMERICAN SOUL**
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: SCOUTS REPORT
Odds: 9-2

Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: CRUISE CAPTAIN
Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: OUR REGAL IDEAL N
Odds: 6-1

Race 2 Comments:  AMERICAN SOUL has missed three weeks since having no shot chasing wicked 1:54.3 mile in last start. Prior form was good and hopefully 4-year-old can bounce back to a semblance of that form.

Race 4 Comments:  HE’S SPECIAL sharp 4-year-old was uncovered a long way from 7-hole and bravely held show through :59.1 final half. Two back was a strong front end score from first decent post in a while. Gets the rail and figures to be hard to deny.
