Race #1 \u2013 5K Claiming \u2013 1 Mile Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Dropkick The Cow (99158) is dropping down in class from the 7.5K range and stretching it back out to a mile where she has had her best speed ratings.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She is the M\/L favorite at 5\/2.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>True Hollywood<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> (79678) is also dropping in class considerably.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At 7\/2 this mare would be no surprise to jump ahead of this lower class of competition.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The longshot for this rave would have to be Thou Shall Not (129616).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This mare comes in at 6\/1 but is coming off a 5 race turf trial and comes home back to dirt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She, in five races, has a win and a place under her belt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race # 2 \u2013 MSW \u2013 6 Furlongs On Firm Turf<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A MSW for the 2yo ladies.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Bluegrass Alycat (142958) with her second race and first attempt on grass has the pedigree but can she live up to that.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The morning line favorite at 3\/1 has some competition at 9\/2 with Auror Dreams (141548).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Also making her first run on turf she has two races under her belt in which she did not perform up to the odds makers.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The next best offer her is Mamateste (142182). Her second race is also her second race on turf.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With a second place finish, by a nose, in her last effort I see a potential medium shot here at 5\/1.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #3 \u2013 Claiming 3.5K \u2013 1 Mile 1\/16 On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Long For A Reason (88139) 2\/1 and Naw\u2019s Christie (91583) 7\/2 are the only two plays in this race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At 7\/1 Lust For Chips (40288) is making a huge drop in class to her lowest claim tag. Possible longshot here.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race # 4 \u2013 MSW \u2013 6 Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Another MSW for the 2yo ladies.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Triple Sevens (144241) in her debut race comes in near even money at 9\/5.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her closest competition is Natburg (31061) at 4\/1 is in her 3rd<\/SUP> race with a place and a show under her belt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Can the experience overcome the breeding?<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #5 \u2013 Claiming 4k \u2013 1 Mile \u00bd On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Northern Passer (99524) in a short field of 7 horses is the huge favorite at 9\/5 with Ida B. Wells (93758) and Hurricane Again (56079) at 5\/2 and 7\/2 respectively.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #6 \u2013 Claiming 5K \u2013 1 Mile 3\/16 On Firm Turf<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Aydans Dream (364) coming off a win in her last race, her debut on grass, at 5\/1 is not the oddsmakers favorite but should be considered right there.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Stormy Lass (121318) a veteran now with 7 races on turf finishing all of them in 4th<\/SUP> or better with two of them being wins.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She comes in the favorite at 5\/2 and can you blame them.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #7 \u2013 MSW \u2013 6 \u00bd Furlong On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A MSW for all 3yo.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Sadler\u2019s For Niner (40975) at 3\/1 in his 9th<\/SUP> race is still looking for the Maiden.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He has the pedigree (Sadler\u2019s Well x Forty Niner x Storm Bird) but can he hold off Wilbur Worm (15678) at 9\/2.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #8 \u2013 ALW \u2013 1 Mile \u00be On Firm Turf<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A gamblers nightmare. A nine horse field with four horses who could find themselves in victory lane.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Point Break (59132), the favorite at 9\/5, \u00a0<\/SPAN>in just her 2nd<\/SUP> turf race finished 2nd<\/SUP> last time out in her turf debut.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With Apprehended (49621), a turf veteran, and Sing A Song (60021), returning to her grass roots, at 4\/1 and Aurora Nova T (101608), another turf vet at 9\/2, this just might be a very interesting field.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At 5\/1 we can\u2019t forget Jen\u2019s Guitar (60779) who is coming back to turf as well after a long stay on dirt.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race #9 – \u00a0<\/SPAN>ALW \u2013 1 Mile On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

If race 8 was a nightmare this is a lifetime of horror.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A 14 horse field with 9 horses with odds ranging from 6\/1 to 10\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A race not worth handicapping.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Dark Hall (124856) and Bayakoan (25167) lead this gaggle of horses at 6\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Good Luck.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 10 \u2013 The Light Light Bonanza \u2013 Stakes \u2013 1 Mile \u00bc On Fast Dirt.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A four horse Stakes race the Bonanza should still be very competitive.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Red Apple Express coming off two graded races in which she has a 7th<\/SUP> place finish along with a show.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The M\/L favorite at 4\/5 she will be looking to hold off Willpower (594490.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This mare has won her last 3 races with 2 of them being Stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Do not count her out as she comes in 9\/5.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The race appears to be a two horse race but Dance The Breeze (64504), 7\/2, who has struggled of late, hopes to turn things around. Rounding it out is Sanibel Island<\/st1:place> (129793) at 5\/1.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 11 \u2013 MSW \u2013 7 \u00bd Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

The unquestioned favorite at 7\/5 is Unprohibited (84994).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This is the guarantee lock of the week here in Ohio<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>If you don\u2019t gamble and want to start bet it here on number 7 to win.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The other horses appear to not be in the same class here.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 12 \u2013 Claiming 15K – \u00a0<\/SPAN>Seven Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Ragtime Dance (8299) at 7\/2 looks very nice in this 15th<\/SUP> race in the dirt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has been in the money in 7 of her last 14.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Confucius Dog T (101204) is stepping up in class here from 10K and is in at 5\/1 which leads one to think what the odds makers are smoking.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Hot Ziggity (98629) at 8\/1 looks like a good buy in this field.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Stepping down from Starter 25K races, this might be the race to win.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 13 \u2013 MSW \u2013 7 \u00bd Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A five horse field of 4yo and up.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Bored Cow (84108) finishing second in his last attempt is poised to break through and get that coveted Maiden.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At 2\/1 El Football (37335) might have something to say about it.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>However, Civfly\u2019s Niner (97836) looks to be a better contender and may give ole Bored Cow a run for his money.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 14 \u2013 ALW \u2013 7 \u00bd Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A low value horse race for 5yo and up.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>You can never tell which horse might limp across the line first.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Stay away from this race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Asqueroso (58989) and Taptitude (7948) lead this bunch at 6\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This is a wide open race and Tub Run Hollow (48231) at 35\/1 is still got a chance.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 15 \u2013 Buckeye Derby<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> \u2013 Grade II Stakes Race \u2013 1 mile 1\/8 On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Aly Nine (126474) is no stranger in Graded Stakes running in 5 of her 11 race carreer.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Finishing 4th<\/SUP> in his last race a G2 at this distance with an impressive 105 SR he is looking to win his first graded stakes race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He comes in at 9\/2 along with Nagasaki<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> (38577) who is also no stranger to the graded stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Getting two wins back in April in two G2 races really beefs up this colts resume.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His last G2 race back in May was a third place finish with an even more impressive 109 SR.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Do not count out Be Auror Song (124931) who also has some graded wins under his belt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The last one coming May 26th<\/SUP> in a G2 race as well.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>My pick for this race,\u00a0 <\/SPAN>if of course Nagasaki struggles, is Lucky\u2019s Capital (115083), 9\/1, a winner of four consecutive stakes\/graded races from January 20th through March 10th<\/SUP>, he is coming back from back to back G1 races where he did not finish too strong.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He is not only coming down in class but going back to a preferred distance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Well Played Ted (39892) is running in his third G2 race with the best finish of fourth is probably not competing here, although he comes in at 9\/1 as well. HighAsAKight(67402) with no graded or stakes wins comes in at 10\/1, which is baffaling, along with Achaemenes (126235) who has some nice wins in a Street Sense kind of way.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This horse may contend late if the pace is slow.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The rest of the field is outclassed and there doesn\u2019t appear to be any Giacomo type horses out there.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

Race 16 \u2013 ALW \u2013 6 \u00bd Furlongs On Fast Dirt<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

A six horse field with everyone chasing Ruckus Phone (40638).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>As the M\/L favorite at 8\/5 he stands to be the horse to beat.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At 5\/2 my money however is going to be on Chafing Tiger (46983) who is three years younger and has performed better than his opposition.<\/P>
