Horse Name: INSANE PROPANE
Odds: 5-2
Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: SARNO
Odds: 9-2
Race 1 Comments: NORTHERN IDEAL had 8-hole last time after a strong wire to wire score against tougher two back. 10-year-old has a winning habit visiting the winner’s circle on 15 occasions this year and 60 in his career, gets a better spot against lesser and will likely try to control it. B BLISSFUL’s career is winding down after winning 61 times in his career and has looked great winning three of his last four, post appears only drawback here.

Horse Name: OUTLAWDANGRUSWATRS

Horse Name: BRED TO RACE
Odds: 7-2
Race 2 Comments: SIX ROSES held well after chasing quick pace in last. Should be of some value from this spot but will need best to surprise these. AMERICAN CHAMP has finished well from tough spots in recent, moves inside and appears the one to beat.

Odds: 3-1
Race 3 Comments: TYLERS GREAT lacked a rally from second tier through past pace. Gets a better spot here and should be sitting closer to the pace.

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: THE CATAMOUNT KID
Odds: 9-2
Race 4 Comments: CAMTURO ROCK was used hard to get the top from 8-hole, yielded to sit the pocket but lacked a rally through :58.3 final half. Moves inside for hot barn and figures to be tougher in second local try.
