🥇 #3 MONTE AMORE — 3-1 | Won last out closing from well back in the stretch; Bob McClure/Shawn Steacy have a 21% win rate together and she draws a favourable post tonight.

🥈 #2 KISSEDBYASTRANGER — 5-1 | Won her maiden two starts back then chased very fast fractions last week and hit the wire in a three-across photo; Travis Henry has been consistent with this filly all season.

🥉 #5 P N G SHADOW — 5-2 | Twice finished second to A Clean Deal in stakes company this year and was narrowly beaten in the SBOA Final; dropping significantly in class with Mark MacDonald sending her forward.

💥 LONGSHOT: #1 TWIN B FIERCE — 4-1 | Faces non-winners of two for the first time in her career after a steady diet of stakes company; Douglas McNair/Gregg McNair is a reliable combo and she could outrun her recent form.

🥇 #6 ROMANTIC BEAUTY — 2-1 | Was a clear leader last week before getting caught right at the wire in a fast mile; Douglas McNair/Gregg McNair have a 15% win rate and this filly is clearly the class of this field.

🥈 #2 COULD BE QUEEN — 5-2 | Won in London two starts back making a dominant middle move to the front; James Macdonald/Nick Gallucci are a 33% win rate combo and she produces big closing fractions at this track.

🥉 #5 ANGELS AMOUNG US — 9-2 | Nine wins from 19 starts this season and bounced back well at Grand River Monday night; Travis Cullen reclaims the mount and she draws a workable post tonight.

💥 LONGSHOT: #4 CUPIDS SHADOW — 10-1 | Closed five lengths in the final quarter last out and draws inside for the first time after three consecutive wide posts; Phil Hudon can be dangerous when drawing in.


RACE 3 — F&M NW $2,600 LAST 4 STARTS | PURSE: $12,000

🥇 #2 CC ROCKIN ROSIE — 5-2 | Two straight wins at this class level and looked dominant in both; Mark MacDonald/Garry Merner are a 13% combo with a $2.06 ROI and she drops right back into her comfort zone.

🥈 #9 KELLINA DIAMOND — 8-1 | Won wire-to-wire at Georgian Downs last out and has shown front speed at tonight’s class level twice recently; Jean Rene Plante/Carmen Auciello have combined for 123 starts together.

🥉 #6 CANT SEE ME — 6-1 | Draws best post tonight and gets James Macdonald back; ran into trouble at this class level last start after a lame scratch and figures to be sent aggressively from the gate tonight.

💥 LONGSHOT: #1 SWIFT TALKER — 4-1 | Came within a head of beating Twin B Empress five starts back before that mare reeled off wins; gets a significant class drop tonight and Bob McClure/John Pentland have history together.


RACE 4 — OSS GRASSROOTS LEG 2 | 3-YEAR-OLD PACING FILLIES | PURSE: $25,000

🥇 #2 AUNT GERTRUDE — 3-1 | Unbeaten in five starts including a wire-to-wire win in the London Classic Final last out; Anthony Haughan/Meg Crone have a 13% win rate and this filly has not missed the top two yet this season.

💥 LONGSHOT: #6 SHURI — 6-1 | Led last out in London before being caught late; Tyler Borth/Jason Libby have a 13% win rate together and this filly has clearly found her best form at three.


RACE 5 — TROT NW $1,300 LAST 4 OR $3,000 LAST 8 STARTS | PURSE: $10,000

🥇 #6 BUCK DANCER — 9-2 | Retains the best post and James Macdonald is a dominant driver who will likely send this veteran forward; finished just half a length behind the third pick here on May 29th.

🥈 #2 MADE OF MAGIC — 3-1 | Gets a key class drop and Tyler Borth returns to the bike after winning on him in London four starts back; was overmatched last week starting from the widest post.

🥉 #1 TALK SHOW HOST — 8-1 | Finished a solid third at this exact class level two starts back showing good early speed; Daryl Thiessen takes over and this veteran should overcome drawing the rail tonight.

💥 LONGSHOT: #4 PINEWOOD HANOVER — 5-1 | Qualified well here on June 1st finishing second; Scott Young/Dagfin Henriksen have a 50% win rate in two starts together and this gelding has previously shown he can compete at this level.

🥈 #1 CATTLEKISS — 9-2 | Won her Grassroots Consolation in a lifetime mark last fall and gets Louis-Philippe Roy for an aggressive steer in her first Grassroots start of 2026; tightener at Grand River Monday should have her ready.

💥 LONGSHOT: #4 SAMETHINGONYDIFRNT — 10-1 | Won easily two starts back before a Grassroots trip where she was overworked; Todd Ratchford/James Wellwood have a 11% win rate and she gets a better chance with a more conservative drive tonight.

🥈 #9 BUSY MISS LISSY S — 8-1 | Six wins from ten starts last year including major stakes races and arrives off a sharp qualifier; Sarah Svanstedt/Ake Svanstedt are a proven combination and this filly will blast from her wide post.

🥉 #2 HP CRYSTALINE — 10-1 | Upset winner in her OSS Gold two starts back and came right back to finish second as the 4-5 favourite; Douglas McNair/Chantal Mitchell have a 12% win rate and she is in sharp form.

💥 LONGSHOT: #8 FLOWING TRIBUTE — 6-1 | Five wins from seven starts last year and was a clear second in the OSS Gold two starts back; Bob McClure/Paul Reid have a 34% win rate together and she can overcome wide posts based on her past form.


RACE 10 — FILLIES & MARES OPEN | PURSE: $50,000

🥇 #8 LETS N JOY N — 3-1 | Ten wins and three seconds from 13 starts since shipping from Australia; draws a vastly better post than her London trip where she was trapped wide and James Macdonald/Jacques Dupont are a 45% win rate combo.

🥈 #5 HORIZON SEELSTER — 7-2 | Won in a sub-1:50 mile two starts back and has been consistently in the money all season; Jody Jamieson/David Menary have a 17% win rate together and she was full value for her last win.

💥 LONGSHOT: #4 ULTIMATE DESBI N — 10-1 | Came from last to finish a closing third on debut here last week pacing a 53-flat back half; Trevor Henry/Jacques Dupont have a 13% win rate and this New Zealand mare is clearly still improving.

🥇 #5 TWIN B EMPRESS — 7-2 | Six wins from eleven starts this season including back-to-back victories; Douglas McNair/Corey Giles have a 100% win rate in their one start together and she draws a fair post tonight.

🥈 #10 TELLS ON A ROLL — 3-1 | Drops another class level tonight and Travis Cullen/Jodie Cullen will rev her up early; has been consistently hitting the board at open level and this spot looks tailor-made.

🥉 #8 MADAM X — 5-1 | Seven wins from 18 starts this season and finished just ahead of tonight’s top pick last week; Daryl Thiessen/Garry Merner have a 16% win rate together and she figures to close late again.
