RACE 1: CLAIMING $5,000 (CONDITIONED), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 4 FURLONGS

1. #3 – Imtakinittothebank (12-1): He faded on the pace last out in PA but had run well prior to that; should get a nice trip off the leaders with speed drawn to his inside.     
2. #4 – El de Chirel (12-1): Take out his last race, where he broke terribly, and his form looks a lot better; Orlando Bocachica rode him to victory two starts back and now gets back in the saddle.   
3. #1 – Bandit’s Heart (5-1): Wore down the speedy Landon Jack to win on this track last year; might he try to work out a
   similar trip this time?

RACE 3: CLAIMING $5,000 (N/W2L), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #7 – Coronation Time (7-2): Improved sharply to break his maiden going away last out.    
2. #2 – Simon’s Choice (9-2): He’s run faster with each recent dirt start, and should enjoy some class relief.    
3. #1 – Seeker (20-1): A cutback in distance from a mile and 70 yards is just what this speedy gelding needs.                      

RACE 4: CLAIMING $5,000 (CONDITIONED), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, FILLIES AND MARES, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #4 – G’s Fireball (7-2): Kicked away impressively against similar at Charles Town last out; she’s inconsistent, but her best wins this.
2. #6 – Sheza Nasty Girl (9-2): Her three-race winning streak was snapped last out, but she’s in great form and should fight hard late.
3. #7– Tina Tina Tina (9-2): Has great late speed and should at least rally for a share.                  

RACE 5: CLAIMING $16,000 (CONDITIONED), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, FILLIES AND MARES, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #6 – Forgotten Girl (5-2): Looks fast enough to clear to the rail and the lead, and from there, she should be hard to catch.   
2. #4 – Enemynumbernine (5-2): She’s won two of her last three and has good tactical speed.
3. #3 – Beautiful Karla (9-2): She’s at her best going this distance or thereabouts.

RACE 6: STARTER OPTIONAL CLAIMING $12,500, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 1 1/16 MILES

1. #6 – Mr Mac Quhae (2-1): He’s in career-best form right now, having won his last two starts by a combined 14 ¾ lengths.       
2. #2 – Morning Thoughts (9-5): He re-rallied to win last out against these types and will show speed.
3. #5 – Clubman (6-1): The old man of the Maryland circuit has earned over $700,000 in his 81-race career and should improve second off the layoff.                

RACE 7: ALLOWANCE OPTIONAL CLAIMING (N/W1X), 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #2 – Band Camp (1-1): Should get his fifth in a row without much drama; from there, it might be on to the Maryland Million Sprint.
2. #3 – Rad Paisley (6-1):  He’s by far the main speed of the race and will try to take them
   gate-to-wire.    
3. #5 – Uncle Cat (5-1): Fought hard but faded going a mile last out; this looks more in his wheelhouse.           

RACE 8: SHINE AGAIN STAKES, 3-YEAR-OLDS AND UP, FILLIES AND MARES, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #6 – Kitten’s Appeal (6-1): Beat a second-level field impressively last out; we’ll see if she’s sent to the front or rated.   
2. #1 – Discreet Ops (6-1): Graded stakes-placed filly should improve switching back to dirt.                  
3. #3 – Hot Fudge Warrior (9-2): She’ll try to repeat her gate-to-wire effort at Delaware Park last out.

RACE 9: MAIDEN CLAIMING $5,000, 3, 4, AND 5-YEAR-OLDS, FILLIES AND MARES, 6 1/2 FURLONGS

1. #1 – Eight Oz Mocha (7-2): She’s finished second in each of her first two starts; she got caught wide last out, but should save ground from post 1 here.
2. #8 – Breaking Rules (3-1): Has finished in the top three in each of his last six starts and got caught wide last out.
3. #5 – Any Fools Gold (9-2): She’s been at her best on grass lately, but should contend against these types even if she’s not quite as good on this surface.
