6 My Anguilla(L) 3-4-1 Luzzi Hushion 121 6-1

6 McVictory(L) 3-2-2 Cohen Barbara 120 5-2
Classofsixtythree earned very fast late pace figure when winning last on inner surface and is 2-for-2 on Big A's main track. McVictory was compromised by wide trip in last and owns fast back figures. Persistently could easily take this if pace meltdown ensues.

1 Mile. (Turf). 3&up. Maiden Claiming $16,000. Purse: $16,000.

8 Franklin Delano(L) 10-8-9 Musarro Campo 118 2-1
Franklin Delano is rested, returns to preferred footing and could offer generous odds. Gilt Edged switches to sod after earning improved late pace figure in last; dangerous. Runaway Legend has flashed ability in the mornings and debuts in less than stellar group.

6 Furlongs. 4&up. Claiming $35,000. Purse: $36,000.

8 Gold Vendetta(L) 2-4-2 Chavez Contessa 118 5-1
Golden Vendetta closed into swift final fraction last time and could receive perfect setup in probable front-end dynamics. Mister Triester was done in by hot splits in last; dangerous on the drop. Mt. Glittermore owns speed and fast figures; logical, short-priced threat.

6 Furlongs. 3&up. NY Bred. Maiden Claiming $15,000. Purse: $15,000.
1 Ruling Decision(L) 6-5-3 Samyn Sedlacek 123 4-1

8 Karakorum Budman 3-x-x Saez Odintz 118 7-2
9 My Man Jake(L1) x-x-x Hill Badgett 118 5-1
Mind Boggling returns to maiden claiming ranks after regressing in last; bounces back in weak field. Old Kit Bag is riding a forward line on the numbers and makes peak start of form cycle; very playable. Ruling Decision drops and owns fast back figures; right in the thick of this.

6 Writingonthewall(L) 3-2-1 Cohen Martin 122 2-1
7 Separatist(L) 6-2-4 Velasquez Tagg 122 9-5
Smart Enuf consistently logs the field's fastest late pace figures and is training with a purpose for first start since February. Writingonthewall could prove tough to catch as the dominant speed; very playable. Separatist could easily take this on 'A' game.

1a Mr. Serious(L) 3-3-5 Maragh Persaud 118 8-1
10 May Day Now(L) 1-2-6 Prado Rodriguez 120 5-2
Wadi Suki turns back to 6 furlongs after notching rapid internal figures at a mile in last; rates close call in ultra-contentious heat. Little Wise Guy logged game placing in last and owns fast figures on 'A' game. Afrikaner packs potent stretch punch on best efforts.

1 Mile. (Turf). 3&up. Fillies and Mares. Claiming $25,000. Purse: $27,000.
1 Paparazzi Charm(L) 9-8-6 Lopez Mena, II 124 30-1
2 Ambidaxtrous(L) 6-3-2 Dominguez Bush 124 8-5

5 Normandy Queen(L) 7-7-7 Davis Terracciano 124 30-1
6 High Lion(L) 3-2-3 Cohen Jacobson 124 5-1
7 Imthequeenofqueens(L) 7-6-6 Velazquez Parisella 124 10-1
8 Quisom(L) 2-6-2 Hill Ribaudo 124 9-2
9 Wonderwho'sbest(L) 6-9-6 Saez Chatterpaul 124 12-1
High Lion owns sprinter's speed and could capitalize on soft lead at two turns on sod. Ambidaxtrous will be the prime beneficiary if top selection hits the wall in the lane. Wonderwho'sbest is 1-for-1 on Big A grass and should offer generous price; worth long look. Southside Babe ships in from south Florida and should be aided by today's longer trip.
