6 Furlongs. 3&up. Maiden Claiming $20,000. NY Bred. Purse: $28,000.
1 Winning Pal(L) 121 Ortiz, Jr 3-6-7 Rice 3-1

6 Crushin Rock(L) 121 Rosario 6-4-5 Levine 7-2
7 Geantor(L) 121 DeCarlo 9-4-6 Contessa 20-1
8 My Cousin Eddie(L) 122 Davis 6-8-3 Chatterpaul 15-1
9 Lakota Freud(L) 122 Velasquez 3-2-5 Rice 2-1
Keyaly is 0-for-33 but packs potent late kick on best and could receive good setup in weak field. Crushin Rock gets favorable cutback to sprint after flashing improved speed in last; dangerous. Winning Pal could play out as the main speed on the fence; right in the thick of this.

6 Furlongs. 3&up. Maiden Special Weight. Purse: $62,000.
1 Alpha Zumba(L) 121 Lezcano 6-2-3 Sacco 8-1

5 Burned Bridges(L) 121 Lezcano 9-6-2 Persaud 20-1
6 Sense of Peace(L) 121 Maragh 6-x-x Kimmel 5-2
Rockin Boogie set hot fractions and faded in first start since two-month layoff; tighter today. He Ain't Bluffing is training with a purpose for first start since June; could easily take this. Burned Bridges will benefit from surface switch and cutback to 6 furlongs; price will be tempting.

Main Track Only
9 Rienzi(L) 120 Dominguez 1-4-x Brown 8-5

15 Souper Funny 120 No Rider 9-x-x Albertrani 6-1
16 Main Man Mike(L) 120 Velasquez 3-x-x Hennig 2-1
Metro tallied solid late pace figure when third behind a pair of next-out winners in lone grass start; sharp recent works seal the deal. Kenalantic is bred to handle switch to sod; dangerous. Efficient Market made mild rally in debut and could be aided by today's additional furlong.

9 Sawyers Trustylady(L) 120 Dominguez 3-4-5 Asmussen 5-1

1a Quick Money(L) 120 Ortiz, Jr 3-6-2 Rice 2-1
Main Track Only
13 Bomber Boy(L) 115 Ortiz 1-3-2 Rodriguez 9-5
Irish Lion has drilled four times since spinning his wheels in the slop last time; switch back to grass is key. Top Yank was a front-running winner in last and could prove very tough once again on an unchallenged lead. Economic Summit should benefit from return to turf; don't ignore. Colossal Gift must be factored into the mix if able to escape AE list.

4 R Gypsy Gold(L) 115 Velazquez 5-6-3 Pletcher 7-2
5 Hard Life(L) 113 Rosario 6-1-2 Dutrow, Jr 12-1
Willet demolished NY-bred field last time and appears ready for prime time in cuurent form. Fantasy of Flight fired 5-furlong bullet since hand-ridden score in last; big-time danger. R Gypsy Gold needed last and is more than good enough on 'A' game.

16 Rover(L) 114 Coa 1-6-5 Terranova,II 5-1
Rover unleashed powerful, last-to-first burst in stretch to win last; call if able to draw in. Northern Tripp overcame 22-length first call deficit to break maiden in last; price will be attractive. Parachute Coney drops and owns fast figs on best efforts. Balance the Budget is another class dropper that logs swift numbers on 'A' game.
