Race 1 Comments: HONORABLE LADY Pocono shipper chased a slow pace from the pocket in latest, the lacked a rally through :57.3 final half. Filly isn’t much but takes on a field that’s a combined 6 for 159 lifetime and looks capable of handling weak bunch for underrated horsewoman who had a winner here on Thursday card.

Horse Name: LIZZIANA
Odds: 4-1
Race 2 Comments: KING PRINCESS chased a strong wire to wire winner home from the pocket last time and did well to hold place in fast mile. Meets that one again but gets position edge and can turn the tables. GREY ROCKET handled top one last time but now draws outside and may be pressed a bit early.

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: PROUDAMERICANGIRL
Odds: 3-1
Race 4 Comments: CAY’S BLESSING had 8-hole and was parked the mile pushing quick pace, amazingly held show in quick 1:56 mile. Makes second start for new barn and may get the top easier despite another tough draw. LOOKINTOMYEYES Chicago shipper has been chasing fast miles over the mile track and now ships east and joins barn that’s winning at 39%. Figures to be tough from the pole despite lacking much small track experience.

Horse Number: 8
Horse Name: SMARTYS FILLY
Odds: 3-1
Race 5 Comments: ARIANNA GRANDEO was shuffled back from the rail, slipped out down the backstretch and finished overloaded with pace, home in :28.1. Two back took a lifetime mark in wire to wire fashion. Mare remains razor sharp having finished with sub :29 final quarters in six of her last seven starts and gets the nod on or from off the pace.
