8 Jitalian(L) 120 Perez 2-4-4 Grusmark 5-1

9 Afleet Pegasus(L) 120 Davis 2-5-8 Maroun 12-1

Cinder Cone needed last and owns fast back figs. Butler Cabin can prove a front-end threat on best efforts. Jax Maxx would be aided by hot fractions.

1 Mile and 70 Yards. 3yo. Optional Claiming. Purse: $56,000.

2 Quiet Man(L) 118 Castro 1-5-8 Kenneally 10-1

3 Summer Sunset(L) 118 Perez 3-6-7 Galluscio 3-1

1a Da Vinci(L) 118 Ortiz, Jr 6-1-10 Pletcher 4-5

7 A Cat That Flies(L) 118 Alvarado 5-2-1 Zito 5-1

Summer Sunset set swift pace in last and could enjoy softer flow today. Da Vinci is fresh, training consistently and will be in the garden spot if top selection gets hooked on lead. Big Budget is another that will benefit from fast fractions.

6 Furlongs. 3yo. Maiden Special Weight. Purse: $60,000.

1 Double Talk(L1) 120 Alvarado x-x-x Brown 6-1

2 Rockin Boogie(L) 120 Lopez 2-2-2 Levine 5-2

4 Luckysdream(L) 120 Fragoso 3-x-x Giglio, Jr 6-1

5 Capital Goods(L) 120 Ortiz, Jr 2-4-x Romans 3-1

6 Got What(L) 120 Garcia 7-3-x McLaughlin 7-2

Luckysdream logged fast internal and final numbers in debut; call based on price potential. Got What failed to deliver best when 85 cents on the dollar in slop last time; dangerous on dry land. Rockin Boogie was top-figured second behind repeat winner last time; could easily take this.

1 1/16 Mile. 4&up. Allowance Optional Claiming. NY Bred. Purse: $57,000.

1 Sound of Drums(L) 118 Rodriguez 7-6-3 Divitto 20-1

7 Quietism(L) 120 Davis 4-1-2 Baker 12-1

8 Calgary Enforcer(L) 118 Espinoza 2-1-12 Martin 15-1

Copper Forest was clear-cut winner in last and gets confident price hike for new barn. So Scott closes strongly in sprints and should appreciate added ground. Diamond District wheels back in a hurry after winning second straight on President's Day; very dangerous.

6 Furlongs. 3yo. Fillies. Maiden Claiming $16,000. NY Bred. Purse: $29,000.

2 Cinnamon Stick(L) 120 Silvera 5-6-11 O'Brien 6-1

9 Movin to Utopia(L) 120 Ortiz, Jr 12-x-x Levine 5-1

10 One Or The Other(L) 120 Castro 8-x-x Bush 10-1

Lithe Legend drops after making middle move in debut; more to come. One Or The Other adds blinkers after failing to impact in debut; wakeup potentail. Who's Zat Girl should pack amplified kick with cutback to sprint; big-time player.

1 Mile & 70 Yards. 4&up. Allowance Optional Claiming. NY Bred. Purse: $59,000.

1 Dream Drop Kid(L) 123 Lopez 1-5-5 Galluscio 10-1

6 Bold Deed(L) 118 Alvarado 2-2-5 Hushion 5-2

7 The Noz(L) 118 Garcia 8-5-1 Violette, Jr 15-1

8 Bigger Is Bettor(L) 118 Castro 3-2-6 Ubillo 5-1

Most Happy Fella notched career best final fraction in last and should pack intensified punch with slight cutback. Bold Deed was toug-trip second in last and could play out as the controlling speed with return to route. Take A Walk logs fast figs with machine-like consistency; could easily take this.

1 Mile. 3yo. Maiden Special Weight. NY Bred. Purse: $55,000.

1 Chilton(L) 120 Studart 5-2-5 Coffey 30-1

2 Limani(L) 113 Rodriguez 4-6-9 Donk 20-1

12 Hidden Vow(L) 120 Alvarado 2-x-x Motion 3-1

13 Seventeen and One(L) 120 Velasquez 6-x-x Woodard 12-1

Pearl Of Wisdom was a tough-trip second when failing as the favorite in last; deserves another chance. Shy Humor was eliminated at the start in local debut; very playable. Ampersand regressed in last after fast-figured placing in prior; dangerous. Hidden Vow must be factored into mix if able to escape AE list.

1 Mile & 70 Yards. 4&up. Claiming $7,500. Purse: $28,000.

1 Bindle Stick(L) 120 Studart 4-6-6 Dunham 20-1

8 Gamblin Fever(L) 120 Espinoza 5-7-5 Odintz 8-1

9 Adam Rides Again(L) 120 Velasquez 3-3-12 Englehart 5-1

Launch N Relaunch returns from 48-day freshener and drops two class levels; takes this on 'A' game. Power King defeated a pricier field when winning second straight last week; very dangerous. Adam Rides Again has delivered sharp efforts in last two; must consider.

1 1/16 Mile. The BUSHER. 3yo. Fillies. Purse: $75,000.

2 Sweet Seventeen(L) 116 Garcia 2-2-1 Motion 8-5

3 Marvelous Margaret(L) 116 Curatolo 1-4-x Martin 12-1

1 Lisa T.(L) 116 Velasquez 3-1-2 Pletcher 2-1

1a Off Limits(L) 116 Alvarado 4-1-4 Mott 2-1

4 Better Lucky(L1) 116 Castro 5-1-x Albertrani 4-1

5 Plum(L) 120 Dunkelberger 1-1-1 Jenkins 6-1

6 Super Quiet(L) 118 Delgado 1-6-2 Wood, II 15-1

Off Limits fired 5-furlong bullet since closing into hot final fraction last time at GP; more to come. Sweet Seventeen owns fast figs and compiled stamina-building work tab for first start in 49 days; could easily take this. Lisa T. logged swift number when an even third in most recent; right in the thick of this.

6 Furlongs. 4&up. Claiming $7,500. Purse: $25,000.

1 Brunelli(L) 113 Camacho, Jr 8-7-5 Bond 6-1

2 Zeppe(L) 120 Espinoza 6-5-7 DeMola 12-1

3 Coronado Heights(L) 123 Velasquez 9-1-x Pletcher 7-2

4 Lime Zest(L) 120 Curatolo 7-5-6 Martin, Sr. 20-1

5 Gramercy(L) 120 Ortiz, Jr 6-4-3 Shivmangal 15-1

6 Solutionfinders(L) 120 Smith 4-6-5 Englehart 10-1

7 Ry Bread(L) 120 Lopez 10-6-3 Galluscio 6-1

8 Great Recession(L) 120 Silvera 4-3-5 Hizo 30-1

9 Purge Bird(L) 113 Rodriguez 5-5-6 Aquilino 15-1

10 Keltic Fighter(L) 120 Davis 4-10-9 Hizo 30-1

11 Houston Harbor(L) 120 Castro 8-4-1 Rice 8-5

Brunelli was making solid move when clipping heels and losing rider in the stretch last time; another shot. Houston Harbor owns speed, fast figs and is training with a purpose for first start since July; very dangerous. Ry Bread's speed gives him a puncher's chance; don't dismiss. Zeppe could land in exotics at fat odds.
