Race 1      3-5-4

Familyofroses has only two wins but they have both been at BEL. Will have to close for the win but has the figures to be a factor. Lady Luciano should be the speed here and has looked better on the dirt than the turf. Literata has two wins in four tries at BEL including one at the distance.

Race 2      4-7-6

Sinatra should be in a good spot turning for home and should do better with the drop in price. Upgrade is another dropping in price. Has a high in the money percentage and has been running consistent figures for a while. Compliance Officer has been with quite a bit better in the recent past and ran well when dropped to this level last out.

Race 3      8-2-6

Godrevy puts the blinkers on and Castellano stays for the ride. Should be coming late. Indian Trail has been improving with each out and the fact Pletcher keeps him at the MSW level is a positive. Captain Tim looked better in his last out and could be getting back to the form he showed first time out at BEL.

Race 4      5-1-13

Chico Grande was gelded since his last start and drops down to his lowest price ever. Looks best in a suspect field. Frontier Scout is racing third off a layoff and has come back stronger in 2015. Apache Warrior makes another drop after finishing a close second last out. Should be able to get a spot even though he is on the outside.

Race 5      1-5-6

The Magical Miss/Egyptian Magic coupling looks tough here. Both are dropping in price and look well meant at the distance. Undertherain should be the speed in a field that doesn’t have an abundance of front runners. Moon Medal is dropping way down after running a good race second time on the turf.

Race 6      10-7-5

Whatawonderflworld is a Tiz Wonderful that goes first time for top trainer Mark Casse. Love the fast early work and the last work on the turf. Stormin Stephen had the lead in the stretch last out but lost by a half after racing greenly. A better effort could put him on top. Sherry’s Miracle has some fast works for Mike Miceli and looks well bred for the distance.

Race 7      6-9-1

Mid Ocean has the best last race figure but that was in a Travers where he was no factor at all. Prior to that was impressive breaking his maiden and if he goes back to that race he’s still a major factor. Tapitsphere just missed in his last and seems to have come into his own lately. Send It In should be at his best at the mile distance for Pletcher/Castellano. Has a good race over the BEL dirt.

Race 8      7-10-4-2

Barrel of Love threw in a mediocre race last out but the penultimate race was a fast sprint at BEL. Sandy’z Slew just missed last out. Still looking for a win on the BEL turf but has been in the money all five of his starts there. Tripski gets a positive switch to Castellano and hasn’t been out of the money this year. Summer Breezing is 2 for 2 over the BEL turf and looks to be in top condition.

Race 9      4-8-3-2

Miss Kew has been wide in both of her starts but has still closed with interest. Lots of outs today. Lady Lucky had a troubled start last out but still showed enough interest to finish third. Every opportunity to win with a clean start. Sheyn Vi Di Levonne comes out of the same race as the first two and was another than need the experience from that start. Expecting better today. Sophie’s Choice last race was better than looked and she has been improving. Interesting at 15-1 ML.
