# 7 JUST DO IT JESSE 5/2
|
|
# 8 PAST THE SHOOTER 8/1
|
|
# 4 SHIFTTANEXTGEAR 3/1
|
We've got an instinct JUST DO IT JESSE is going to get the score. More than likely the class of the group of animals with an average rating of 69. A nice selection. Earned a 69 speed rating in last race. A duplicate event here should get the win in this contest.
PAST THE SHOOTER - May provide us a victory based on really strong recent TrackMaster speed figs - earning an avg of 67.
SHIFTTANEXTGEAR - Has a very compelling shot in here, if he can perform to his back racing class. Should be considered for this race if only for the competitive TrackMaster Speed Rating earned in the most recent contest.

# 9 ANTS INER PANTS 4/1
|
|
# 7 VIPER BLUE CHIP 3/1
|
|
# 8 MY FUNKY FARKLE 6/1
|
We've got a feeling ANTS INER PANTS is going to get the score. The wagering panel saw this horse's name on a restaurant menu. Call it our coffee house play, worth a small bet. Worth serious consideration here given the ratings in the TrackMaster Speed Rating department alone. Clearly the class of the bunch with an average rating of 85. A nice pick.
VIPER BLUE CHIP - The 85 average class rating may give this gelding a distinct edge in the grouping. Has one of the most competitive win pcts in the grouping and may be able to add to those stats today.
MY FUNKY FARKLE - This solid standardbred may have some hidden form, a win would be a pleasant surprise.

# 4 WHY ASK WHY 9/2
|
|
# 5 CONTROL TOWER 9/5
|
|
# 6 SKYWAY BILLY 3/1
|
The consensus in this contest is that WHY ASK WHY is the one to beat. This entrant may have some hidden form, a triumph would be a pleasant surprise. Doing work admirably, achieved a huge speed rating in his most recent gathering (78). With better than average win statistics, Oosting should have this gelding in excellent position to win the race.
CONTROL TOWER - Willis knows this contender well. Excellent in the money results when starting together.
SKYWAY BILLY - The knowledge group noted a huge outing out of this solid standardbred last time. Hoping for a duplicate of that to score. This horse has a nose for the wire, just look at his better than average win stat.

# 3 ONE JAZZY LADY 5/2
|
|
# 9 GABBY REI 3/1
|
|
# 8 IM A SAND BLASTER 5/1
|
ONE JAZZY LADY will not be denied the trip to the winner's circle in this contest. Could surprise us at a fairly reasonable price. Don't leave out. This race could very well be controlled by this mare. Just one look at the avgerage TrackMaster Speed Rating will confirm that. This race horse looks very good considering the high class statistics. Don't throw out of any exotics.
GABBY REI - Many top players will recognize the exemplary speed rating in the last competition. Stacks up against any horse in this grouping. Have good feelings this one might thieve in this contest.
IM A SAND BLASTER - Good for a win play just off the great prior class markings. Have to like this horse. Is a sharp win contender given the 60 TrackMaster SR from her most recent contest.

|
# 1 RED HOT ART 9/5
|
DAKOTA ROADSTER has a nice shot to take this race. The number crunching team knows that speed is King in harness racing. This standardbred will unlock our way to a nice win. Colt and driver go together like peaches and cream. They finish in the money 64 percent of their races.
MR PICKPOCKET - Had one of the best speed figures of the field of starters in his last contest. A good idea to use in your wagers.
RED HOT ART - He has been running competitively and the speed figures are among the strongest in the field of starters. With a 74 average class rating, this solid standardbred has one of the most solid class advantages in the race.

|
# 2 CAMWISER 3/1

Look no further than MAJOR MALE as the play in this one. Has very nice TrackMaster Speed Ratings and surely has to be thought of for a wager today. The 86 average class figure may give this gelding a distinct edge in the grouping.
MEADOWBROOK SAMSON - Always tremendous driver-conditioner duet. 21 percent winners when they combine to do work. Drawing the 9 position at this track has lead to a much better than average win percentage.

# 6 IAM BONASERA 5/2
|
|
# 8 FIRSTCLASSALLTHWAY 4/1
|
|
# 2 BEST MAN HANOVER 3/1
|
IAM BONASERA positively is tough to overlook as the harness racer to beat in this race. The handicapping group noted a strong event out of this contender last time. Hoping for a repeat of that to end up in the winner's circle. Excellent winning percent makes this contender an excellent choice to take home the dough. Some drivers just do better with certain nice horses. That seems to be the case here with Seekman. A really good wager.
FIRSTCLASSALLTHWAY - This nice horse earned a very good TrackMaster Speed Rating in last race. Looks fit to come right back. We're not going to pass on this gelding given one of the strongest driver/trainer figures around.
BEST MAN HANOVER - It's tricky to consider solely based on class, but this gelding has among the finest class stats of the group of horses. Many horse players will recognize the terrific TrackMaster Speed Rating in the last race. Stacks up against any horse in this group of animals.

After thorough analysis by the handicapping group, FASHION DELIGHT comes out as the top pick. Is a sharp choice given the 92 TrackMaster Speed Rating from his most recent race. Talk about a dynamic duo, Widger and Giberson have some of the best driver/trainer ratings at the track. The consortium happens to know that when you put Widger and Giberson together respectable results happen frequently.

Running quite well, achieved a huge TrackMaster SR in his last outing (83). One of the most compelling win pcts with this driver-conditioner make this gelding dangerous.
MONOPOLY MAN - Certainly should be given a look based on the great speed rating recorded in the most recent contest.

|
# 7 TOUCH THE ROCK 7/2
|
|
# 9 EMPLOYESS GO WILD 10/1
|
We've got a feeling COTTON EYED JOE is going to get the trip to the winner's circle. The handicapping team gives this horse a very nice chance to come home a winner, class numbers are tops in the field. Had one of the most competitive speed ratings of the field of starters in his last affair. A good idea to use in your bets.
TOUCH THE ROCK - Can't overlook based on TrackMaster Speed Ratings which have been exemplary (89 avg) recently. Recorded a 81 speed figure in last race. A duplicate affair here should get the victory in this one.
EMPLOYESS GO WILD - Had one of the best speed ratings of the group of animals in his last race. I'd recommend using in your bets. Horses starting from the 9 slot have given gamblers formidable returns on their money.
