Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: WAY TO CLOSE
Odds: 7-2
Race 1 Comments: FAR BETTER is on quite a roll right now. Shoots for sixth straight, the first five in sub 1:57 miles, and is hard to go past.

Odds: 3-1
Horse Number: 7
Horse Name: SHEZLIMITLESS N
Odds: 4-1
Race 2 Comments: BELIEVE IN ANGELS was wide most of the middle half over good track, finished evenly. Mare is winless over past two seasons but may be set to move forward off hat last effort.
Race 3
Horse Number: 7
Horse Name: TRIBAL SPORT**
Odds: 7-2
Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: ACEFORTYFOUR SODA
Odds: 9-2
Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: OREANTHI
Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: WIGGLE IT GIRL
Odds: 4-1
Race 3 Comments: TRIBAL SPORT ships down from Prince Edward Island off a good two-move try over slow half-miler. Joins forces for “hot” connections and may prove best against slow field.
Race 4
Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: HARDWARE PRINCESS
Odds: 3-1
Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: CHEAP THRILLS
Odds: 7-2
Horse Number: 4

Odds: 4-1
Horse Number: 7
Horse Name: MAJORETTE ANGIE
Odds: 5-2
Race 4 Comments: HARDWARE PRINCESS blasted to the top, set a hot pace and managed to hold off the closers with a 1:27.3 final three quarters. Can repeat against field lacking a ton of early speed.
Race 5
Horse Number: 7
Horse Name: SAUVIGNON BLUECHIP
Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: DUE WEST
Odds: 7-2
Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: HEART THROB KID
Odds: 4-1
Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: WIGGLEMEJIGGLEME
Odds: 3-1
Race 5 Comments: SAUVIGNON BLUECHIP lightly raced but speedy sophomore was a force on the NYSS trail as a freshman despite limited action. Went down to three quarters in 1:23.3 at Yonkers making sophomore debut before going inside the pylons. Has qualified in The Catskills in identical 1:57.1 miles and appears too fast for these.

Odds: 4-1
Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: PROUDAMERICANGIRL
Odds: 5-1
Race 7 Comments: DREAMING SILLY takes a sharp drop and gets the pole off fast qualifier. Seems better than these if anything close to right.

Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: GRAND PRIORITY
Odds: 7-2
Horse Number: 5

Odds: 4-1
Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: AMERICAN ISLAND
Odds: 3-1
Race 8 Comments: JUNIOR’S DEW paced the fastest mile of the year in The Catskills last time and was claimed by The Parker’s. Meets far tougher but gets the rail and seems sharp enough to handle the upgrade at short price,
