Selections for Tuesday April 2. Rumor has it that's going to be a wet one, so here goes nothing.
Race 1
#9 Chisum - clearly the best of this group, bad track not in his favor
#7 Magic Manner - remember the last time Aaron drove him? So do I. Terrific mudder also
#1 Town Toots - chance for a check with this post
#3 Corrigal - fits well with these, the break notwithstanding
Race 2
#3 Illusion Offreedom - third start for the beaten favorite, nemesis won again last night
#2 Yankee Summit - 0-13 this year, looks good on paper but races well enough to lose
#4 Libel Windswept - decent qualifier and Don Mac on board, may surprise
#1 Lumberjack Lavec - new barn drops the hopples, we've seen flashes of potential, beware
Race 3
#6 Gator Slamsthedoor - been racing over his head, easier pickings tonight
#5 Deal Me Three - nice race last week, wins this if the Gator isn't slamming the door
#7 Sunset Ball - otb 7-12 lifetime means something, so does Aaron's %'s from this post
#9 Autumn's Katy K - always note the double qualifiers, raced in air last one
Race 4
#8 RU Lonesome Tonite - beaten favorite taken out early last week, much better price tonight
#6 Key Decision - first time Merriman for the class dropper, not racing all that well
#4 J Ds Survivor - might be the fastest horse in the race, could use a driver
#5 Democratic Dragon - moves down and back inside
Race 5
#6 Quick Way Hall - tons of class, form the big ?
#1 Cruisin Sam - drops to the bottom for his third local start, Wyatt's choice
#2 Amati - paced a decent mile in the slop last week, look at the final quarter
#4 K C Rudy Dude - badly beaten favorite adds lasix this week, not sold yet
Race 6
#9 Master Can Sizzle - major class drop, was 5-1 choice in a $6k race last week, post my only concern
#3 Dummy Jones - needed the race last week, Stahl back in control
#1 Dublin Dollars - all good things must end, tough company in this race
#5 Mr Mime - took advantage of his post two back, not an easy trip tonight
Race 7 Best Bet
#4 Eye Of The Dog - the stars have aligned for this one tonight
#9 C'mon Cha Cha Cha - this one has caught my eye, does plenty of work every week
#3 Covered Connection - has been short every week, time to get off
#2 Northville Albert - signs of life, probably moves out of the claimers next week
Race 8
#4 Sweet Potatoe - uncharacteristic break last week, another shot tonight
#2 Sister Kathy - lasix and an aggressive move last week, will be in the mix tonight
#1 Keystone Tristen - seems to have leveled a bit, break not encouraging
#5 Master GP Dean - bumped up in class after the impressive win, could get even better
Race 9
#7 Fox Valley Galaxy - will hammer this class a few more times before he is done
#2 CG's Wonder - post and class relief, looks second best tonight
#4 French Attack - class dropper likes the mud
#1 Dreamie Affair - got the good trip last week, could happen again
Race 10
#5 Allamerican Viper - appears too sharp for the rest of this field
#1 Super Max N - continues to make money every week with these inside draws
#3 Free For Life - back in town after a bad draw cost him a check, pretty darn sharp
#9 Tough Bow Min - hasn't been worse than 4th in his last seven starts, post the downfall tonight
Race 11 Best Bet
#1 Bustamante - always smokes this class every time he drops to this level
#5 Trytopass Sam - under performer may get new life with the barn change
#6 Honorable Guy - don't like claimers dropping, especially ones that broke
#3 Nico Mirabel - wearing a claiming tag rather than moving up, on the board last three
Race 12 Value Play
#8 Class Worker - class dropper needs a trip, but has the driver to provide it
#1 Spirit Freeluck - has been a money pit, should win much more often
#4 Nuke Kidin Town - drops out of the claimers, more consideration with a different driver
#3 Bad Boy Bunny - a lesser group tonight, should be in the mix
Race 13
#4 Drawback - Crist put Kakaley up, so the horse is ready, a better price with Crist driving
#3 Guile's Boy - Matt thinks he can win with this one, good luck
#9 Misty's Dignity - the best of this group, but we need to see him in a real race
#1 Yankee Ace - the driver won last week
Good Luck
