\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 At 17 \/ 1 with G .

\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In post 9 is\u00a0Defrocked\u00a0 17 \/ 1 ( Saint Liam x Fappiano x Private Account ) In just 3 starts this dark grey has earned $ 22,000 with 1 win , 2 shows .

\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In post 10 representing Metfield<\/EM> stable is Miss me Yet<\/STRONG>\u00a0 11 \/ 1 ( Golden Missile x Capote x Cure the Blues ) Earner of $ 91,000 in 3 starts this brown colt is certainly no stranger to graded company . His last start in the Hoserhead Juvenile<\/U>\u00a0 – G1 over 7 furlongs in BC raised a few eyebrows , but trainer Metfield<\/EM> feels his colt will like the 8 furlongs better and get some payback this week .<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 At 20 \/ 1 wearing number 11 is Years<\/STRONG>\u00a0go By<\/STRONG> (IRE)\u00a0 <\/STRONG>( Oratorio x Seeking the Gold x Northern Dancer ) from the lasthope1<\/EM> stable , C . Wolff ( 13.3% ) aboard today . With 5 turf races under his belt this fiery chestnut colt has amassed\u00a0$ 157,000 this season with 3 wins .\u00a0 Making the switch to dirt makes sense and trainer lasthope1<\/EM> is hoping for a titanic effort by this flashy juvenile shipping in from France .<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In post 12 at 9 \/ 1 is Ape the Great<\/STRONG> (\u00a0Event of the Tear x Northern Baby x Allen’s Alydar\u00a0) with B. Langhorne ( 10.7% ) in the irons , trainer Ape <\/EM>feels that his $ 71,000 earner is right in his element running 8 furlongs . Last start he gave away too much ground in the Ky Horsemen Juvenile <\/U>-G1 in Kentucky just weeks ago . I would love to see this horse get back to his stalking style and put up some big numbers this week .<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In post 13 is\u00a0\u00a0Mohave County<\/STRONG>\u00a0 8 \/ 1 (\u00a0Saint Liam x Seeking the Gold x Secretariat\u00a0)from the Roys stable . In 4 starts this Dark Grey colt has wracked up $ 67,00 in earnings including his 4th place finish in Smackdown II<\/U> -Stk over this very same track . Trainer Roys<\/EM> gives D. Fendlay ( 7.7% ) the nod today in what will be his youngsters longest race . He’s been training well , loves the track and locals are all abuzz about his next start .<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Far outside at 10 \/ 1 wearing number 14 is Desert Sniper <\/STRONG>(\u00a0Action this Day x Old Trieste x Drone\u00a0) L. Secret ( 11.6% ) in the irons . Earning trainer Greenappl6 <\/EM>$ 350,000 to date in 5 runs : 3-1-0 including his come from behind win last time out over this same track in Smackdown II<\/U>\u00a0 – Stk .\u00a0 This brown colt is a scrapper and is making headway into the unknown … 2 turns on dirt .<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I think we will see Insky Winsky Spider<\/STRONG> make a punishing pace early on , if they let him go he could conceivably wire this race . Look for\u00a0Forty Duece<\/STRONG> to challenge early call 3 and Rattle my Chain (AUS)<\/STRONG> with Mojave County<\/STRONG> and Desert Sniper<\/STRONG> making their nail biting .. heart attack late runs to the wire .<\/DIV>
