10 Sugar Mags(L) 120 Velazquez 2-7-6 Donk 7-2
Sister Superior makes first start with maiden claiming tag and logged fast final fraction on turf two starts back. Justenufflaughter has finished second at fat odds in last two starts; continues trend? Ten Penny Princess also has finished second in last two (albeit at much shorter odds); logical player.

7 Furlongs. Claiming $16,000. 3&up. Purse: $32,000.
2 Distorted Dream(L) 124 Ortiz, Jr 2-3-1 Tasso 3-1
1 Bellamy Brew(L) 122 Saez 1-5-9 Jacobson 8-5
3 Regulus(L) 122 Ortiz 5-8-1 Gargan 5-1
4 Grandpa Len(L) 117 Cancel 6-5-3 Barbara 12-1
1a Johannesburg Smile(L) 120 Bravo 4-6-2 Jacobson 8-5
5 In the Beat(L) 120 Davis 9-4-3 DeMola 20-1
6 Real Estate Rich(L) 122 Rosario 5-3-9 Contessa 6-1
7 Native Gold(L) 120 Carmouche 2-8-1 DiPrima 5-1
Grandpa Len has been claimed from three of last four starts and gets favorable turnback to sprint. Jacobson entry: Bellamy Brew was a clear-cut winner at this level in last and mate Johannesburg Smile drops and owns four wins at Belmont; potent pairing. Regulus notched fast-figured score in most recent start on Belmont loam (May 17); very interesting.

8 Congarette(L) 121 Franco 8-9-x Turner, Jr 30-1
9 I Dream of Candy(L) 121 Carmouche 2-4-x Calhoun 2-1
Forma's Joy should pack amplified late wallop with cutback to 6 furlongs. Animal Appeal is speedy, rested and training sharply; very dangerous. Donatienne makes peak start of form cycle and owns fast back figures.

1 1/16 Mile. (Widener Turf). Claiming $25,000. 3&up. Fillies and Mares. Purse: $38,000.
2 Shakesperian Dream(L) 120 Ortiz 4-2-4 Farro 7-2

1a Life's a Stage(L) 120 Arroyo 4-5-2 Lostritto 6-1
Main Track Only
12 Sweet Henrietta(L) 120 No Rider 8-3-4 Farro 6-1
Shakesperian Dream was pace and position compromised in last at Ind; rates narrow edge. Annie Walker returns to grass after being sharpened in dirt sprints; potent dirt-to-turf barn. Chow Fun ran into traffic jam when a better-that-it-looks sixth in last; price will be tempting.

1 Drama King(L) 119 Ortiz, Jr 1-8-2 Rodriguez 9-5

6 Jeter(L) 120 Rosario 7-2-1 Adsit 12-1
7 Gypsum Johnny(L) 119 Velasquez 2-3-3 Rice 12-1
Sailmate should possess intensified kick with cut back to 6 furlongs. Jeter gets confident price after sitting out "jail" time since claimed; very interesting. Possilicious delivers strong efforts with machine-like consistency; right in the thick of this.

13 Strong Dude(L1) 119 Rosario x-x-x Contessa 7-2
Steamboat Bill was a game second in valuable race on the Belmont grass on Sept. 12; more to give. Its All Relevant also finished second in last (on Spa sod) and fired crisp half-mile breeze last week. Energy Policy debuts for Chad Brown; any questions?

11 Son of a General(L) 120 Ortiz 5-2-1 Rice 4-1
12 Saturday Appeal(L) 120 Alvarado 6-1-6 Schosberg 12-1
Utopian owns fast late pace figures on best efforts and makes first start since claimed by David Jacobson. Rapscallion, claimed from last four starts, is riding a forward line on the numbers. Heiko's speed gives him a puncher's chance.

6 Furlongs. Allowance Optional Claiming. 3&up. Purse: $85,000.
1 Doubledown Again(L) 122 Castellano 3-2-4 Serpe 3-1
2 Gombey Dancer(L) 124 Saez 1-1-1 Dibona 4-1
3 Classic Salsa(L) 124 Carmouche 3-1-1 Gargan 8-1
4 Eye Luv Lulu(L) 124 Bravo 1-5-1 Jacobson 12-1

7 Mewannarose(L) 120 Velasquez 5-5-2 Englehart 7-2
8 Scatman(L) 120 Saez 2-4-1 Englehart 10-1
Doubledown Again packs potent late kick and should receive favorable front-end dynamics. Green Gratto can prove to be a very tough customer on an unchallenged lead. Mewannarose is training swiftly for first start since May 1; more than good enough on 'A' game.

1 1/16 Mile. (Widener Turf). Maiden Claiming $50,000. 3&up. Purse: $46,000.
1 Megatrez(L1) 120 Davis x-x-x Zito 30-1
2 Bold Runner(L) 124 Arroyo 2-5-2 Quartarolo 20-1
3 Tizacinch(L) 124 Castellano 3-7-4 Bush 10-1

9 Britannia's Moat(L) 120 Velazquez 6-3-6 Donk 10-1
10 Caldera(L) 120 Ortiz 7-x-x Clement 6-1
11 Forty Purrs(L) 120 Ortiz, Jr 3-7-4 Kenneally 8-1
12 It's a Given(L) 120 Carmouche 9-2-6 Martin 10-1
Forty Purrs set hot pace when a strong third in first start since two-month layoff last out; tighter today. Brevard logged four tight workouts since game placing on Aug. 9; dangerous. Britannia's Moat made premature middle move to lead and faltered in the lane last time; right in the thick of this. Deep Consideration was compromised by wide trip in last; must be considered.
