Odds: 3-1
Race 1 Comments: LK’S NANCY LEE steps up without winning but has looked better in recent weeks and is one of two in here with a class edge. DEUCES FOR CHARITY is the other in here with some back class that steps up without winning but when right can finish fast and must get a look in small field.

Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: CARTERS CAPER
Odds: 7-2
Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: KJ LEO
Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: MIDNIGHT SHARK
Odds: 4-1
Race 3 Comments: SEE YOU FRIDAY had 7-hole and was compromised by slow early pace, made up some ground late but never really got close despite pacing :57.2 final half. Prior was a parked out try in 1:56.2 mile two back and a solid placing in 1:56.4 mile three back losing by a length and a half to current buzzsaw. Remains sharp and can brush by these from better spot.

Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: TREVOR’S ACE
Odds: 3-1
Horse Number: 4

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: HYPNOTICDREAM
Odds: 7-2
Race 4 Comments: JEFF’S JOURNEY 6-year-old has taken to The Catskills and was claimed while in raging form last time. Gets the rail and should be able to handle the upgrade here.

Odds: 4-1
Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: DREAMING SILLY
Odds: 3-1
Race 6 Comments: MILLWOOD FAITH N was used to get the top, set a pressured pace and gave way late on 16-degree Catskill afternoon that was unkind to front speed. Returns to best level, gets the rail and looks hard to beat at short price in small field.
