#5 Prima Storm (5-2) - Draws well again for 2nd start and the stretchout is well within his range. 2ND
#1 Touchdown (12-1) - Had an interesting run in debut while still continuing to close. Saves ground and fires late.

R8 - Millions Classic Preview 100k

#2 Sr. Quisqueyano (30-1) - Crazy ML price on a runner that has more than enough good races to take this event. Expect him to be forwardly placed throughout.

#4 East Hall (3-1) - Looks to get a favorable stalking trip and is in career form. WON $6.80

R9 - Juvenile Turf (Turf 2yo 8F)

#1 Firespike (5-1) -BEST BET No problem excusing the G1 try on dirt because he took lots of money in his grass races and came through at Saratoga facing 9 others. WON $5.20
#2 Black Martino (15-1) - Improved on the Turf and draws much better today. I wonder if the quick turnaround was a spontaneous decision..

#8 Hubba Shake (5-2) - Will have to maneuver through some traffic but there seems to be enough speed lined up.

R10 - Juvenile Sprint 100k (2yo f 6.5F)

#9 Moment of Delight (5-1) - Adds the hood and looks to make amends for disappointing at odds on. 2ND
#12 Leap Year Luck (10-1) - Look for her to be flying late. WON $17.20

#8 Authentic Drifter (6-1) - Barn has them ready right from the jump.

R8 - OC 62k/N2X

#6 Sassy Kiss (4-1) - Draws well and Bridgmo will have options.

#8 Devious d'Oro (7-2) - Consistent sort should not be ignored for all slots. 2ND

R9 - G3 River City Handicap (Turf 9F)

#4 Villandry (8-1) - Looks primed for a good run off the slight cut back and projected pace scenario. WON $10.60
#6 Silver Max (7-5) - Obviously the most talented runner of the bunch, but is he at his best going 9F and do you really want to eat near even money?
#5 Guys Reward (5-1) - Freshened up while coming back to his favorite course. 4TH
#11 Under Control (Brz) (8-1) - Travels well and must just find a trip to be a contender late. 3RD

I wouldn't be surprised if the Irish and Rams come out with wins this weekend. Enjoy the weekend. I'm only interested in Arizona for golf (especially for the ego boast with the ball traveling further) because I can't live in warm weather without a beach. I prefer Floriday any day.

Close these out Mr. Chicago! Rooting for you.

I'm not a fan and will have with some fun with Irish fans if the beat down continues. I'm an SEC guy and can't wait for Bama in the Bayou tonight.

Thanks, EPB - Looking for a price in the 3rd leg at HAW and then finishing it off.

[EPB]

Gus, why did you pick the 11 in the final, and not include in the P-4?

[dagolfer33]

Run the table big dog, good luck!!! And you may get some help here in the 8th!!
