RACE 1 – PROSPECT SERIES, $8,000 Pace (3YO Colts, Leg #2)

1. #4 WRITELINE (9-2) – Won last out wire-to-wire in 1:57.4 under trainer-driver Michael Horner, and has finished in the money in 8 of 14 starts in 2026 — by far the most consistent horse in this field.
2. #6 MAJOR MONEY (2-1) – Lost by just a nose last week after rallying from off the pace, and his $54,780 in 2025 earnings shows class well above this Prospect level.
3. #3 LUNAR SPORT (8-5) – Won two starts back in 1:52.4 at the WBSB7/8 level (much faster than this field), though he did break stride in his last start — talent is undeniable if he sits straight.
   Longshot upset: #8 BARBARO (6-1) – Won his last start by 2 lengths gate-to-wire, lightly raced (8 lifetime starts) but clearly progressing fast with a 1:55.4 lifetime mark already banked.

RACE 2 – POP UP LEG 2 (Horses & Geldings), $4,000 Pace

1. #4 THUNDERBOLT RUN (4-1) – Closed for third last week from a rough outside trip, and across his last 9 starts he’s finished 1st or 2nd six times — the most dominant recent form in this field by a wide margin.
2. #3 LEFT ON READ (2-1) – Finished third last out pressing from the pocket, and won impressively two starts back by daylight; steps down in class today which should help.
3. #2 ZIPPENNRIPPEN (8-5) – Was bet down hard last start and finished second after a troubled second-over trip; the underlying speed is clearly there even if the last line looks pedestrian on paper.
   Longshot upset: #6 LIMBO DANCER (7-1) – Finished third last out closing from off a pocket trip, has 5 wins this year and drops back to a easier level tonight.

RACE 3 – NW $3,000/CLAIMING $15,000, $5,500 Pace

1. #2 HEZA HANDY MAN (9-5) – Won last out with a sharp 29.2 closing quarter from off the pace — that’s the fastest, most decisive trip in the field, and he’s a proven winner with 45 lifetime wins.
2. #4 FILLY WATCHER (5-1) – Finished second in back-to-back starts versus tougher conditioned ($9,500-$10,400) company, then comes back down into this spot — class relief is a major positive.
3. #1 SPEAKDOLLARSNCENTS (8-5) – Won two of his last three including a last-to-first rally from 7th, but does need to overcome a slightly wider post tonight.
   Longshot upset: #6 WILD DOC HOLLIDAY (7-2) – Led gate-to-wire and got run down only in the last stride two starts back, then raced flat last out — the front-end speed makes him live if he gets an easy lead.

RACE 4 – NW $2,500, $5,000 Pace

1. #6 JANETS STORY (6-1) – Finished second in her last qualifier and has multiple in-the-money qualifying finishes; trainer Terry Fritz has been intimately involved with her development.
2. #5 GRAPES EIGHTY NINE (3-1) – Finished second in his most recent qualifier showing genuine tactical speed early, still finding his legs but trending the right way.
3. #3 WHATS BETTER (5-2) – Only lightly tested (one qualifier) but bred for early speed off the Betterthancheddar line; first start for the barn against winners is always a question mark.
   Longshot upset: #2 TH BOUGHTNPAIDFOR (4-1) – Has been competitive in multiple qualifiers without a clear pace trip yet, and gets a big driver upgrade to Lorne House tonight.

RACE 5 – CLAIMING $9,500, $4,800 Pace

1. #3 THATMOMENTINLIFE (9-5) – Has won 9 of 19 starts in 2026 — an outstanding strike rate — and was only just edged last week after setting the pace the whole way.
2. #6 LARJON LILLY (5-2) – Won two starts back drawing away, then has raced competitively in deeper company (Op20000clm) since; class and recent form both point up.
3. #5 AZUCAR JACK (4-1) – Finished second last out by just over a length, and is a proven winner (24 lifetime) who’s been knocking on the door in his last several starts.
   Longshot upset: #2 TUUKKA RASP (3-1) – Finished third last out closing from off the pace after setting up a troubled trip earlier in the year; the underlying speed figures are competitive with this group.

RACE 6 – POP UP LEG 2 (Horses & Geldings), $4,000 Pace

1. #4 FEAR THE DICE (9-5) – Won wire-to-wire last out in 2:00.1 and is clearly the form horse in this field right now under a hot Peter Brickman barn.
2. #5 DARK MOVES (7-2) – Won wire-to-wire two starts back and is a proven winner (27 lifetime) who has been training on well — Brady Galliers gives him a strong driver upgrade.
3. #1 LUCKY DANCER (5-2) – Has been remarkably consistent with multiple second and third-place finishes in a row, clearly needs only racing luck to break through for the win.
   Longshot upset: #2 DOCS ROCK (3-1) – Won going away two starts back and has stayed competitive against this level since, capable of forwardly placing again tonight.

RACE 7 – CLAIMING $8,000, $4,600 Pace

1. #3 GRACIE T (8-5) – Has won 6 of 19 starts in 2026 and just won her last two starts in a row, including a gritty late drive to the wire — clear best form in the field.
2. #7 LITTLE T (5-2) – Won two of her last three starts wire-to-wire with authority, looking like the most dominant front-runner in this group right now.
3. #4 MUKTUK ANNIE (2-1) – Six wins and six seconds from 23 starts in 2026 is an elite consistency rate, and she finished third last out only after a troubled trip.
   Longshot upset: #1 TIMEWAITSONNOONE (4-1) – Set the pace and finished third in a troubled trip last out, and her 41 lifetime wins prove she’s a legitimate threat when racing luck goes her way.

RACE 8 – POP UP LEG 2 (Horses & Geldings), $4,000 Pace

1. #2 IDIDITMYSHUI (9-5) – Won his last start gamely from the pocket, and trainer-driver Steve Germain combo (driving and training his own horse) shows real confidence and connection.
2. #3 ST LADS MISCHIEF (3-1) – Finished third last out closing ground from off a troubled pocket trip, with several minor-money finishes in his recent starts.
3. #5 JUST ASK JOE (5-2) – Set the pace and finished third last week, has multiple wins this class this year and remains forwardly placed in most of his races.
   Longshot upset: #6 ACEFORTYFOUR JACK (8-1) – Finished third-or-better in 8 of his last 9 starts — remarkable consistency without a recent win that strongly suggests he’s overdue.

RACE 9 – NW $1,500/CLAIMING $9,500, $4,800 Trot

1. #4 ESQUIRE (8-5) – Won his last start by 3 lengths in dominant fashion and finished second the start before that; 13 wins from 53 lifetime races shows a proven, classy veteran.
2. #9 MAGICS ANGEL EYES (AE) – Won impressively two starts back gate-to-wire in 2:00.1, clearly the second-fastest recent trip in this field if she draws into the field.
3. #6 PETER CROWN (5-2) – Finished second in 3 of his last 6 starts, showing he’s been consistently competitive with this class even without breaking through for the win.
   Longshot upset: #3 RING THE ALARM (3-1) – Finished second last out closing from off the pace after a wide trip, has multiple minor placings showing she belongs in graded company at this level.

RACE 10 – POP UP LEG 2 (Fillies & Mares), $4,000 Pace

1. #6 MISSY ROCKS (2-1) – Finished second in both 2026 starts despite difficult outside, second-over trips both times — the highest power rating in the field (#106) backs up that she’s just missing racing luck.
2. #4 MIGHTY MARY (5-2) – Three wins and three seconds from 17 starts in 2026, and closed for third last out after a rough start — elite consistency for this level.
3. #2 ANCHOR SO REEL (3-1) – Won her last start in a tight photo finish, and has been steadily competitive in nearly every 2026 outing.
   Longshot upset: #5 GRAND CIRCUIT (6-1) – Closed well for third last out after sitting a tough outside trip, and has 17 lifetime wins showing real class within this Pop Up group.

RACE 11 – POP UP LEG 2 (Fillies & Mares), $4,000 Pace

1. #1 HALCYON HANOVER (2-1) – Won her last start gate-to-wire with authority, a clear step forward in form right now for the Cochrane barn.
2. #6 BLACKCREEK ROSEBUD (7-2) – Won her last start by 5 lengths going away, and her 47 lifetime wins prove she’s a legitimate winner when she’s right.
3. #5 PHOSPHORUS (3-1) – Finished second in back-to-back recent starts and has 6 wins from 23 starts in 2025 — consistent recent minor-money form.
   Longshot upset: #4 DARLIN DALLECKTRAH (8-1) – Won her last start wire-to-wire by 2 lengths, and despite an off-form race in between, that recent win shows she still has real ability at 10 years old.
