Tough Card and the $12,000 Open is a good race. Wish it wasn't drizzling, might go sub 1:50 if not...
Race 1
7. BP Burner – I think he deserves second chance after a rare break last week. Will present value on the board.
2. Metro Angel- Barn has had two solid days to start the meet and this horse was ready on first calling.
1. Riggy- Drops down in class. Final quarters a concern.
3. Old Stu Da baker- Likely fronts them again with JRob..
Race 2
7. Keystone Cocoa- Best effort in 6-win season were here last year.
3. Doggone Slots Love the horse, but, likely needs one.
2. TN Starbuck- Any closer and he would have been a dead heat last week. Nice effort from 8-hole.
5. Just Call Me Lady- Chased some good ones in last. Likely tighter here.
Race 3 (Superfecta)
6. A living Legend- Drops down here. Comes back to bigger track too.
3. Chester Fitch- Love this old guy, likely heads out early, does he need one?
7. Scirocco Billy- Drops down to bottom level. No early speed kills top chances
4. Zepplin Blue Chip- Exits poor form at Dover. Another class dropper.
9. Southern Artie- Could close for late cash.
Race 4
4. Upbyfive- Acceptabel first effort. Always around at the end of the mile
2. McAttaboy- Ok effort in the Q on off track. If right, as good as any here.
3. Talbot Redneck- 12 year old leaves here no doubt.
1. Doomsday Hanover- No doubt has good position to follow from the rail. Good opener for 2016.
Race 5(Superfecta)
5. Art Simpson- 12-15 mile makes you wonder why he doesn’t leave more. Soft field for him here.
7. A Wild Impulse- Disasterous trip in first start. Has to be tighter now.
6. Kelly land- Jonathan sticks. Draws poorly again. Can go fast enough to win here.
2. Orr Hanover- If he comes back to 12-15 mile, he belongs here.
8. Key West Hanover- Not impossible to hit the ticket despite post 8.
Race 6
4. Ziegler Hanover- Chased good foes in qualifier. Won 7 times last year.
5. Sun Chimes- Gets Berry, has faced better. Seasonal debut is only concern.
2. Abir Hanover- No doubt driver will put the hammer down from here.
3. Be The Best- Solid first effort in 2016.
Race 7 (Superfecta)
3. Main A Dieu Too- was top-3 in 50% of 2015 starts. Should nail these.
6. Luscious AL- Reasonable efforts vs. 10-Claimers at Dover-
2. Salazar- So good to see this guy back here. When last here he was boss at the top level.
5. Cruising West 0-7 on the year, but, facing decent quality. Gets Berry.
1. Dancing Rusty- Spit the bit on Frank in last. 2nd chance?
Race 8 (Feature)
2- Contraband Hanover- What a field! Has enough speed to be well placed JRob choice.
7. Vapour N- Second start in the states, may get cover here.
8. Hot Art- Beats of an effort in 2016 debut. Post 8 here and some live depth in this field. Sub 26 opening quarter?
3. Three Day Forecast- No chance he’s 12-1 as ML suggests. Wicked Speed first or second in 4 of 5 so far in 2016.
Race 9
4. Diamondkeeper- Actually finished strong despite major traffic trouble in last. Draws better. Milby.
5. Arpeggio Hanover- In hand winner against almost exact same field. Likely means 3-5.
6. Doubleshotascotch- faced better at Dover.
8 Rockin Romeo- Expecting fireworks early, I think he follows live cover here.
Race 10
#1 Q Rock- Might, might, be a single for me in pick -3.
5. Charlie B- No doubt one time Open Pacer leaves here.
3. Tampa Bay Escape – rarely wins but hits the ticket.
9. Crimson Cruiser- Barn off to solid start. Keeps Berry.
7. Yippy Ki Yeah- Down in class for seasonable debut
Race 11
5 BattleShoe Tom- Closes like a freight train. Off a sick scratch is only concern.
1.Caviart Tyler- Likely fronts them here.
2.Ts electric- Always shows up well here.
7. Concert Artist- Was huge in Open last week. May be an overlay here.
Race 12
1. Firecracker Freddy- one of two in this field who in times past would run off the screen against these.
5. Toms Titan- Beaten favorite at Monticello. Stunning. So much better than that.
6. QE Way- also bottoms out last chance.
7 Mic Mac Beau- Has been racing at Dover. Hit the board in latest.
9. Three Large-
