RACE 1 — Pace, $6,600, Claiming $20,000, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Lou Knows (4-1) — Won last out on Apr 10 going gate-to-wire, showing sharp early speed and a strong closer; Thomas Hamm barn is hitting at 25% this year.
2. Outlaw Jesse James (5-2) — Consistent top-3 finisher in this class with Sorrie up, though scratched last out; capable when clean.
3. Captain Eight (4-1) — Won this exact class/purse on Mar 18, Galliers driving, and has back class to compete.
4. Longshot Value Play: Mountain Dancer (12-1) — Showed a sharp last quarter in his Apr 17 start and trainer Vleeming has a horse that fits the class drop; at 12-1 the price exceeds the risk.

RACE 2 — Pace, $5,500, F&M Claiming $8,000, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Betternredder (2-1) — Two wins and six thirds in 14 starts this year; Rankin trains and drives, a combo clicking at 21% wins.
2. Bella (3-1) — Six wins in 2025 at 5/8 tracks, Galliers driving, Waxman barn at 17% wins and streaky; bounced back well in recent form.
3. Wicked Discovery (4-1) — Five seconds in 11 starts this year, consistently close; Sorrie/Demers combo is deadly (Demers at 27.5% wins).
4. Longshot Value Play: U No Peach (5-2) — Actually morning-line favorite but has been finishing poorly; flip it — Little T (9-2) has a second and third in last two, trainer Simpson improving, and at 9-2 offers real value off a qualifying effort showing sharp speed.

RACE 3 — Pace, $5,500, H&G Claiming $8,000, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Thunderbolt Run (2-1) — Two wins and three seconds in 13 starts; front-end speed, McQueen barn at 29% wins last 15 days (hottest trainer at the meet).
2. Mad Man Hill (3-1) — Led wire-to-wire Apr 17 before being caught; fits the class and Bain barn is solid at this level.
3. Passionate Prince (5-2) — Three thirds in last six, consistent closer; Gois up and has shown ability to close into this field.
4. Longshot Value Play: Whiskey Friday (4-1) — Won at this exact class on Mar 25, Guillemette barn at 21% wins, and a good post draw could get him the rail in the first turn; price underestimates his form.

RACE 4 — Pace, $7,500, F&M N/W $3,000 Lifetime, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Redland Saphire (8-5) — Freshest filly in the field by breeding (HBG $48,611), Pentland barn at 28% wins; Sorrie driving makes this a solid top choice.
2. Lady Century (2-1) — Qualified sharp on Apr 18, led most of the way; Giles barn at 42% wins (highest rate on the card), Rooney driving.
3. Imperfect Circle (3-1) — Back from Hoosier Park where she competed at a higher level; Libby barn at 29% wins with Galliers up.
4. Longshot Value Play: Barkie Bovino (4-1) — Wray/Bissett combo, showed improvement in her qualifier, and at 4-1 could outrun her morning line if Lady Century or Redland Saphire have issues early.

---

RACE 5 — Pace, $12,500, Preferred, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Silverwalls (9-5) — Nine wins in 2025, competed at Woodbine at a much higher level; qualified sharp in 1:58.2 on Apr 9; Morrissey barn and Rooney driving.
2. Cheddar Bay (2-1) — Won at this level on Mar 30 and Mar 1; Core barn at 17.6% wins with Doyle up; consistent performer.
3. It Takes Two (5-1) — Four wins and two seconds in 13 starts; House/McNiven a reliable combo; however, drew outside which hurts.
4. Longshot Value Play: Harborlite Ambrose (4-1) — Won his last start at Flamboro on Apr 19 at 1:55.4; Andrew barn is sizzling at 32% wins; at 4-1 this is potentially the best value on the card.

1. Saulsbrook Diva (8-5) — Three consecutive wins at this level; Sorrie/Demers combo (Demers at 27.5% wins); dominant front-end horse.
2. Blue Star Sapphire (2-1) — Won on Mar 10 and Mar 6, Kelly trains and drives at 17.4% wins; consistent at this class.
3. Timewaitsonnoone (6-1) — Won her last start Apr 14; McQueen barn is the hottest trainer at Western right now (29% wins last 15 days).
4. Longshot Value Play: Wine Delight (9-2) — Four wins in 10 starts this year, McKnight trains and drives at 40% wins; drawn wide but has the form to close hard late.

---

RACE 7 — Trot, $6,500, N/W $1,500 Last 3, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. No One (2-1) — Two wins in 13 starts with sharp back class at 5/8 tracks; Fillion/Pereira combo and strong at this level.

3. Charmbo Cash (8-1) — Three wins in 14 starts; House/Elliott (Elliott at 23.7% wins); showed a sharp qualifier on Apr 9 in 2:03.2.
4. Longshot Value Play: Billie Jean Queen (3-1) — Won her qualifier on Apr 18 wire-to-wire; Mayhew/Kerr combo, and if she gets the front she could last; technically morning line isn’t 6-1 but her lack of recent race experience makes her a true unknown.

---

RACE 8 — Pace, $5,000, F&M Claiming $8,000, 1 Mile Top 3 Contenders:

1. Inukshuk Sally (2-1) — Seven wins in 2025, fits the class; House/Libby reliable combo at this level with a second in her last start.
2. Watch Her Fly (4-1) — One win and two seconds in 13 starts; Wray/McEachern and came within a head of winning Mar 13.
3. Gracie T (9-5 but moved to Race 10) — Note: Gracie T appears in both cards; Allstar Finest fills here — McNiven barn hot, second and two wins in last 13, MacD driving.
4. Longshot Value Play: Dirtiest Piglet (10-1) — Finished second on Mar 31 at this exact class; Bain barn improving; at 10-1 any gate trip could translate into a surprise finish.

1. Tuukka Rasp (5-2) — Qualified on Apr 18 showing solid back class with $110,904 lifetime; Macdonell/Kerr, and fits the class off the qualifier.

3. Max Shadow (7-2) — Won on Mar 13 at this class; House trains and drives at 9.9% wins but his personal horses run better — won at 3-1 in last start.
4. Longshot Value Play: Hollywood Deo (8-1) — Finished fourth in his last start showing a strong move; Schneider barn at 11.2% wins and at 8-1 price is generous for a horse with $69K in earnings at higher levels.

1. Gracie T (9-5) — Four wins in 13 starts; Duford barn at 18% wins with Doyle up; two consecutive wins including a sharp 1:57.3 on Apr 14.

1. Docsphillycheese (8-5) — Won last out on Apr 7 at this class; Kennedy barn at 10.7% wins but this horse is clearly the form horse; Rooney up.
2. Atlas Hanover (2-1) — Third in three of last four; Demers barn (hottest trainer at 27.5% wins) with Sorrie up; front-speed horse.
3. Scratchin An Itch (4-1) — Four wins in 11 starts; McNiven barn (hot at 20.8%) with House driving; won clearly on Mar 17.
4. Longshot Value Play: Nova Scotia Strong (8-1) — Won on Feb 13 at this class; Moore trains and drives at 20% wins, a value combo; has been unlucky in traffic and at 8-1 the price reflects his recent form rather than his
