Al Cimaglia: Northfield Park Battle of Lake Erie Analysis

June 5, 2021 | By Al Cimaglia
Beginning in 1986, the Battle of Lake Erie is the longest running stake race at Northfield Park and one their most notable events. Tonight, there is a solid field of nine pacers going postward in Race 10 and they will be competing for a share of a $200,000 purse. This Is The Plan leads the field in money earned with over $2.1 million in the bank and the Ron Burke trainee is the 2-1 morning line choice.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 10-Battle of Lake Erie-Free For All Pace-Purse $200,000

1-Western Joe (7/2)-Arron Merriman is between the pipes replacing usual pilot Dexter Dunn. Merriman knows this track like few others and if Joe is dialed on high he could take a picture. Not sure the rail is the best post draw for this classy 7-year-old but should be a major threat regardless.

2-Little Rocket Man (8-1)-Did get in a race over the NFLD surface on 5-16 and paced the back half in a quick .54. Trainer Melisa Essig commented the 5-year-old was a little steppy going into the 1st turn and they will adjust his hobbles, otherwise they were pleased. Regular pilot John De Long will be between the pipes as he was in the last HoP start on 5-29. That night Rocket Man blasted out of the gate with a swift 25.4 opening quarter and made every call a winning one. The program chalks (#3-#1-#4) are making their NFLD debut and maybe having a race over this surface will serve this price shot well.

3-This Is The Plan (2-1)-This 6-year-old has big gate speed, if he gets the top and Gingras can steal a quarter it could be trouble for every foe. The son of Somebeachsomewhere can be a handful to drive and at times looks very uncomfortable behind the gate. The morning line favorite should be a main player but probably at a very short price.

4-Stars Align A (4-1)-Winner of 2 straight since joining the Bongiorno barn faces a big test and hasn't raced since 5-1. Comes into town off a sharp qualifier on 5-29 at the Big M and should be forwardly placed. Does have a 148.0 mark at Dayton on the 5/8s' but my thinking is others could be better suited for a top effort tonight.

5-Hesa Kingslayer N (15-1)-Makes NFLD debut and this longshot will probably be hard pressed to hit the board unless the fractions are hot and Wrenn works a great trip. The quick fractions part of the equation should happen but will likely need to take the long way around.

6-Gold Digger King (12-1)-Winner of 3 straight makes a nice living on the Ohio circuit but not against this kind. Has never won at NFLD in 4 starts and is unlikely to take a picture battling this company.

7-Century Farroh (6-1)-Last year's Breeder Crown Champ has a third place finish in one start at NFLD. The post makes the price and can leave as fast as the gate car but others inside can boast the same. Appears to have a good chance at adding some juice to the gimmicks but it would be tough to cash the top check with this post draw.

8-Southwind Amazon (20-1)-Local hero has won 7 of the last 8 and loves the NFLD oval booking 70 wins in 129 starts. This 11-year-old is as game as they come but the outside post draw has sealed his fate and he is not facing Open Handicap company this evening.

9-Catch the Fire (10-1)-Knows how to win on a 5/8's oval versus top competition, but leaving from the 2nd tier is a tall task. Not sure how Brett Miller gets this 4-year-old into the race. Has won 2 straight but has not faced anything close to this level of competition and would need racing luck to extend that streak.

$6 Exacta 2/1,3-Total Bet=$12
$4 Exacta 2/4,7-Total Bet=$8
$4 Exacta 1,3/2-Total Bet=$8
$2 Exacta 4,7/2-Total Bet=$4

Jeff Siegel's Belmont Park Analysis/Wagering Strategies - 6/5/21

June 5, 2021
Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s “Daily Analysis and Wagering Strategies” isolates those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6.
*
The selections are posted at 6:00 a.m. and updated later in the morning to reflect late scratches and changes (approximately 10:30 a.m.). For additional commentary, follow us on twitter @jsiegelracing.
*
*
Grade Descriptions: Grade A=Highest degree of confidence; Grade B=Solid Play. Grade C=Least preferred or pass; Grade X=probable winner but likely at odds too short to play.

RACE 1: Post: 11:35 ET Grade: X
Use: 3-Hagler; 4-Wit

Forecast: Wit, a $575,000 Keeneland yearling purchase and a half-brother to Longacres Mile-G3 winner Barkley, debuts for T. Pletcher following a promising series of drills both at Palm Meadows and most recently over the Belmont Park training track. This does not look like a particularly strong field so he’s sure to get plenty of play and in fact is listed as the 8/5 morning line favorite. He’s the logical top pick but if he’s truly the goods the action will show, and he’ll probably be too short to play. Hagler has the benefit of a prior run such as it was, a second place finish in a three-runner affair last month. Though he was beaten five lengths the son of Tapiture earned a good speed figure in a fast event, one that makes him strictly the one to beat. Both should be included in rolling exotic play in a race that might be best left alone.
*
*
RACE 2: Post: 12:09 ET Grade: B-
Use: 4-Migrate; 6-Pipeline; 8-Ranger Fox

Forecast: Here’s another maiden affair, this one for older state-bred runners competing over seven furlongs on grass. In a wide open heat, let’s take a stab at a price. Migrate is a first-timer by Candy Ride from the multiple stakes-producing mare Mama Tia and brought $575,000 at Keeneland as a yearling. The W. Mott-trained colt tuned up for his debut with a bullet gate work (5f, 1:00.2hg, fastest of 5) at Saratoga and before that did some good work over the deep Payson Park training track in South Florida. He’s 8-1 on the morning line and could easily be better than that. Ranger Fox is the likely choice and one to beat. The son of Nyquist missed by a neck over the local lawn last month in a legitimate race that produced a solid speed figure, and if builds on that effort today it will take something pretty good to outrun him. Pipeline was wide and green in his debut when fifth to the highly promising First Captain, and though he was beaten more than eight lengths the son of Speightstown earned a strong speed figure, one that makes him a major threat. We suspect the C. Brown-trained colt will step forward, especially with the switch to grass.
*
*
RACE 3: Post: 12:47 ET Grade: X
Use: 3-Jackie’s Warrior; 4-Dream Shake

Forecast: Jackie’s Warrior returned to top form with a gutsy win in the Pat Day Mile S.-G2 at Churchill Downs five weeks ago, has trained well since, and deserves the edge on top due in no small part to his victory over this track last fall in the Champagne S.-G1 that produced a career top speed figure. Clearly most effective around one turn, the son of Maclean’s Music should be the controlling speed once again but at 7/5 on the morning line and likely to go lower he won’t be offering much wagering value. Dream Shake, beaten a head by ‘Warrior at Churchill Downs, gets a two pound break in the weights compared to his chief rival and is guaranteed a comfortable stalking trip outside. He’ll have every chance once again will need nothing less than his “A” game.
*
*
RACE 4: Post: 1:22 ET Grade: B
Use: 3-Campaign; 8-Tizamagician; 9-Lone Rock

Forecast: Let’s zero in on a long shot in this year’s renewal of the Brooklyn S.-G2 for older stayers at a mile and one-half. Campaign, fourth but beaten less than a length in this race two years ago, hasn’t gotten involved in three 2021 marathon outings but might perk up considerably today with the addition of blinkers. The veteran son of Curlin has given himself way too much to do of late but if he be within shouting distance when the field hits the far turn he may have a shot to grind out a win. With the switch to L. Saez and at 12-1 on the morning line, the J. Sadler-trained 6-year-old may be worth a bit of a gamble. Lone Rock, vastly improved since stretching out to the longer distances, has won five of his last six starts and has the type of tactical speed that makes him tough no matter what the pace scenario turns out to be. He’s strong in the speed figure department and though moving up in class semes quite capable of competing at this level. At 9/2 on the morning line, he’s a “must use.” Tizamagician didn’t have a lot behind him when easily winning the Tokyo City S.-G3 at Santa Anita in mid-April but relishes these types of races and will be especially tough if he’s allowed to establish the pace without pressure. First or second in 10 of 16 career starts, the son of Tiznow seems certain to fire another big shot.
*
*
RACE 5: Post: 2:01 ET Grade: X
Use: 4-Dayoutoftheoffice; 6-Search Results

Forecast: Search Results had her undefeated record snapped in her fourth career start when missing in a photo to Malathaat in the Kentucky Oaks-G1 in late April in a gallant effort that produced a career top speed figure. She shortens to a one-turn mile while drawing nicely outside, and projects to inherit an ideal pace-stalking trip. The daughter of Flatter is listed at even money on the morning line and on resume deserves to be, but she’d better bring his best effort in a race that came up especially strong. Dayoutoftheoffice, the winner of the Frizette S.-G1 over this track and distance during her terrific juvenile campaign, was worn down late in the seven-furlong Eight Belles S.-G2 earlier on the Oaks program in Kentucky but makes a major jockey switch to Johnny V. and will be on or near the lead throughout. These are the two we’ll be using in our rolling exotics.
*
*
RACE 6: Post: 2:41 PT Grade: B+
Use: 6-Bound for Nowhere; 10-Stubbins; 12-Sombeyay

Forecast: This year’s renewal of the Jaipur S.-G2 for turf sprinters came up fairly contentious, but with a paucity of early speed signed on, the pace flow is difficult to predict. Bound for Nowhere certainly doesn’t need the lead to win but in a field such as this the high-class veteran may find himself enjoying an unpressured front-running trip. A perfect 1-for-1 over sprinting over the Belmont Park turf course, the son of The Factor is fast on numbers, retains J. Rosario, and is fresh from a superior winning performance in the Shakertown S.-G2 at Keeneland. He’ll get the main push in rolling exotic play, but we’ll include Stubbins and Sombeyay on a back-up ticket. The former has been away since September but has trained well enough to fire a big shot off the bench and can turn it on late if given the patient ride her prefers. The latter, a strong second in graded stakes turf sprint company in his last two outings, will have clear sailing outside and is much more dangerous than his 12-1 morning line would lead you to believe.
*
*
RACE 7: Post: 3:18 ET Grade: B
Use: 3-Letruska; 5-Shedaresthedevil; 7-Bonny South

Forecast: Shedaresthedevil may be the controlling speed, or she might find herself stalking or pressing the Apple Blossom upset winner Letruska, who also does her best running on the front end. ‘Devil is drawn outside her pace rival and can dictate the race flow, but If they hook up early, the race could set up nicely for Bonny South, the best of the closers. Any one of these three can win depending upon how the race shapes out so we’ll include all three in our rolling exotics but otherwise stay out of it.
*
*
RACE 8: Post: 3:58 ET Grade: B+
Use: 4-Regal Glory; 6-Pocket Square; 8-Althiqa

Forecast: This year’s edition of the Just A Game S.-G1 is a terrific event with a strong international flavor. Group-2 winner Althiqa arrives from Dubai following a pair of outstanding performances during the winter carnival, including a thoroughly convincing score in the Cape Verdi S-G3 over a mile in January and then a better-than-looked third place effort behind stable mate-Summer Romance in the Balanchine S.-G2 the following month. In the latter race the daughter of Dark Angel was victimized by a lack of pace and did well to finish as close as she did over a nine furlong trip that stunted her exceptional turf of foot. Clearly capable of firing a big shot fresh and with a devasting late kick that should be well served by this course and distance, the Godolphin homebred has Timeform ratings that are good enough to beat this field and at 8-1 on the morning line offers enticing value both in the win pool and in rolling exotic play. Pocket Square was a visually stunning winner of an overnight race at Keeneland in her U.S. debut and could easily be this good. She was a Group-3 winner at Deauville as a 2-year-old and rates a major chance at 5-1 on the morning line. Regal Glory has returned to elite form, winning her last pair with good stalking trips and strong speed figures, most recently the listed Plenty of Grace S. in her seasonal bow at the Big A in mid-April. One of four C. Brown entrants in the race, she was a two-time graded stakes winner at Saratoga as a 3-year-old.
*
*
RACE 9: Post: 4:42 ET Grade:
Single: 6-Knicks Go

Forecast: Knicks Go may have found the Saudi Cup’s world class competition a bit too strong – especially when asked to go head-and-head with Charlatan and with Mishriff in the catbird seat – but the gifted son of Paynter has been given more than three months off to recover from that physically taxing assignment, shortens to a mile, faces a favorable pace picture, and lands the cozy outside box in this year’s Met Mile, making him the obvious top pick at 6/5 on the morning line. The B. Cox-trained horse has worked like he’s ready to fire his best shot, and the winner of the last year’s Breeders’ Cup Mile-G1 and this winter’s Pegasus World Cup should get his confidence back against a field he’s clearly good enough to handle. It all adds up to a short price rolling exotic single.
*
*
RACE 10: Post: 5:38 ET Grade: B
Use: 4-Domestic Spending; 9-Gufo; 10-Colonial Liam

Forecast: Domestic Spending and Colonial Liam finished in a dead-heat for first in the Turf Classic-G1 over a mile and one-eighth at Churchill Downs last month and they figure to fight it out again in this year’s 10 furlong Manhattan S.-G1. They’re almost impossible to separate, but we’ll give ‘Spending a very slight edge on top this time only because of a more favorable inside draw that might lead to a better (ground-saving) trip. We’re splitting hairs, though. Gufo should be included as well. The stretch-running son of Declaration of War may be a bit pace dependent but he’s getting six pounds from the two main players and his numbers continue to rise with each outing.
*
*
RACE 11: Post: 6:49 ET Grade: B
Use: 3-Rombauer; 4-Hot Rod Charlie; 7-Rock Your World

Forecast: Rock Your World was supposed to be on the lead – or at least very close to it – when second choice in the Kentucky Derby-G1, but whatever chance he may have had went out the window two strides leaving of the gate when he was squeezed back, bobbled, and found himself near the rear of the 19-runner field in the opening furlong. We’re tossing the race out. This time, with just seven other runners to contend with, the son of Candy Ride will hopefully leave cleanly and establish the running, just as he did when trouncing the Kentucky Derby first place finisher Medina Spirit in the Santa Anita Derby-G1 two races back. A sizzling five furlong workout last week in :58 2/5 seconds (before galloping out seven furlongs in 1:25 and change) tells that J. Rosario won’t be waiting around for anybody when the latch is sprung. Rombauer was a thoroughly convincing winner of the Preakness three weeks ago while leaving his previous form far behind. If he can repat that type of performance and extend his range to the Belmont’s marathon 12 furlong distance, the son of Twirling Candy may very well be the one to fear most. He won’t be 11-1 this time, nor should he. Hot Rod Charlie doesn’t really have a turn of foot, but he acts like he will stay forever with his one-paced, grinding style sure to serve him well in this mile and one-half journey. He’s run eight times, and in every outing his speed figure has risen. With another forward move today, the son of Oxbow will be a major factor ever step of the way. As for the race’s 2-1 morning line favorite Essential Quality, you can use him if you’d like. Other than our (very slight) concern that this distance may be farther than he wants, the son of Tapit has an admirable resume and certainly should be forwardly placed and within striking range throughout.
*
*
RACE 12: Post: 7:34 ET Grade: B+
Single: 2-Runaway Rumour

Forecast: The trouble line in the past performance chart last month for debut winner Runaway Rumour does not do her justice. The extended (accurate) version of her trip note should read: “broke poorly and quickly fell back to trail, advanced on her own courage midway to move within range to the head of the lane while saving ground, found plenty of room when angling outside entering the upper stretch and then gobbled up the leaders with an electric turn of foot to win going away while being eased up in the closing stages.” Today, the daughter of Flintshire gets an extra furlong to work with, so despite the raise to the first level allowance condition she appears quite capable of winning right back from what should be a favorable inside post position. At 5-1 on the morning line, she’s a win play and rolling exotic single.
*
*
RACE 13: Post: 8:05 PT Grade: B+
Use: 1-Price Talk/1a-Value Engineering; 3-Microsecond

Forecast: The Klaravich Stable entry of Price Talk and Value Engineering could be used as a single in rolling exotic play simply because you get two for the price of one and either one could win. In fact, we half way expect they’ll finish one-two. Price Talk has speed figure that have risen with each of his five career starts and today at this nine furlong trip the son of Kitten’s Joy should again produce a career top. He’s reunited with “win rider” J. Lezcano, and though beaten as the choice in his last two starts at this level we’re expecting the 4-year-old gelding to be well-paced in the second flight and then have dead from the quarter pole home. Value Engineering is an excellent piece of insurance just in case Price Talk doesn’t step forward. The C. Brown-trained son of Lemon Drop Kid has been away since August, but his steady, healthy work tab should have him plenty fit enough for a barn that hits with 27% with layoff runners. He’s fast on numbers and has the proper second flight style that should guarantee a clean journey. Microsecond may wind up being the controlling speed, especially from the rail, and if not respected on the front end could take this field a very long way. The T. Pletcher-trained gelding was nailed right on the money vs. similar last time out but shortens up a furlong today and has shown the versatility to win from mid-pack and on the front end.

RACE 1: Post: 1:00 PT Grade: X
Single: 3-I Got No Munny

Forecast: I Got No Munny demolished a slightly softer starter’s allowance field over this track and distance last month and if he can turn in two alike the Munnings gelding should have no difficulty repeating despite the minor class hike. On pure numbers he’s a standout, one of the main reasons he is listed at 4/5 on the morning line. You can use him as a short price rolling exotic single or simply pass the race.
*
*
RACE 2: Post: 1:32 PT Grade: B+
Single: 1-Feeling Grazeful

Forecast: Feeling Grazeful was very well-meant in her debut, but a slow start cost her valuable early position and the daughter of Grazen did well to finish a promising second while seven lengths clear of the rest. If she can leave cleanly today from the rail, the W. Spawr-trained sophomore will be hard to beat in this maiden state-bred sprint. At or near her morning line of 8/5, she’s a win play and rolling exotic single.
*
*
RACE 3: Post: 2:03 PT Grade: X
Single: 3-Reedley

Forecast: Here’s another short price favorite that should win but won’t offer any real wagering value. Listed at 4/5 on the morning line, Reedley is a first-off-the-claim play for J. Mullins (strong stats with this angle), and though he missed at a similar price last time out when worn down late the veteran son of Paynter should fire a shot similar to his highly-rated score two runs back that produced a career top speed figure. E. Maldonado stays aboard and knows him well and should have this 5-year-old on the front end throughout as a no-value rolling exotic single.
*
*
RACE 4: Post: 2:33 PT Grade: C+
Use: 2-Big Andy; 4-Mucha Woman; 6-Varoma

Forecast: Mucha Woman returns to the main track, clearly her preferred surface, and the D. O’Neill-trained filly also stretches out again to a distance she’s shown she can handle. In an open fray in which any one of the six entrants appear capable of winning, we’ll go with this sophomore daughter of Empire Way, who already has three wins on her resume. Big Andy returned off a layoff to win her sophomore debut vs. maiden $50,000 claiming sprinters last month, and with a forward move today the daughter of Mr. Big can be competitive right back. She should settle in the second flight and then have dead aim and every chance from the quarter pole home. Varoma is a fit on figures and shows an easy score over this track and distance when breaking her maiden in February. If she can negotiate a decent trip from her widest-of-six post position, she’ll be right there.
*
*
RACE 5: Post: 3:15 PT Grade: B-
Use: 2-McWherter; 8-Armour Plate

Forecast: McWherter is fresh from a clever maiden $50,000 claiming score over this course and distance in early April and shows a strong, healthy work tab at San Luis Rey Downs in the interim. He’s a fairly quick type and projects to be on or near the lead throughout. Armour Plate is the 8/5 morning line favorite (and may even go lower) and certainly is the one to fear most, but he has one win from 25 career starts (with nine seconds/thirds) and therefore isn’t one to trust. He certainly could win, and we’ll include him on our ticket, but at his projected price he’ll offer little wagering value. We’ll try to get by using just these two in rolling exotic play.
*
*
RACE 6: Post: 3:50 PT Grade: B
Use: 4-Desmond Doss; 5-Tizhotndusty

Forecast: Desmond Doss removes blinkers, returns to the main track, and drops from state-bred stakes company into this allowance optional claimer, all positive factors that contribute to his 6/5 morning line price. No worse than second in three career starts over the local main track, the son of Grazen can win on the front end or by rallying from mid-pack, so regular rider A. Cedillo can assess the early pace flow and then decide on a strategy. Tizhotndusty is a hard-hitting gelding with strong form over the Santa Anita dirt surface, most recently earning a career top speed figure when a close second under similar conditions last month while well clear of the rest. Based on that race, he’s the one to fear most. Both should be used in rolling exotic play; we’ll have a few extra tickets keying Desmond Doss on top.
*
*
RACE 7: Post: 4:52 PT Grade: B+
Use: 1-Nasty; 8-Superstition

Forecast: Superstition got caught in a wicked speed duel and paid the price late when second in the Mizdirection S. over this turf course in mid-April but catches what promises to be a much more comfortable pace scenario today, and with the benefit of her outside draw she appears capable of dictating the terms of the early fractions. The daughter of Ghostzapper offers wagering value at or near her morning line of 5/2 if you can get it. Nasty seems worth including on a ticket or two as a backup. Freshened since winning the grassy Lady Shamrock S. over a mile here in late December, the R. Baltas-trained filly has trained in sharp style of late and though primarily a middle distance performer in her career could be just effective as a late-running sprinter.
*
*
RACE 8: Post: 5:26 PT Grade: X
Single: 3-Signofthecross

Forecast: Signofthecross looks solid in this first-level allowance main track miler for state-bred older horses, but he’s listed at 6/5 on the morning line so he won’t be offering any real wagering value. First or second in five of seven career starts, the L. Powell-trained gelding makes his first appearance since early February but the work tab, while certainly not flashy, should have him fit enough to return as well as he left. Anything close to his best race wins, so we’ll make him a rolling exotic single but otherwise pass the race.
*
*
RACE 9: Post: 6:01 PT Grade: B
Use: 6-Magic Man; 7-Landowne

Forecast: Magic Man outran his 15-1 odds when leading the way until deep stretch before winding up a close fourth in his debut over the local lawn vs. similar last month. If he can improve off that race – and the barn has solid stats with the second-time starter angle – the son of American Pharoah will be hard to catch. Today’s shorter distance certainly won’t hurt, and the apparent lack of other early speed in the field also enhances his chances. Landowne represents stranger danger and is the one to fear most. A couple of outings during the winter over the all-weather surface at Dundalk in Ireland were okay but not great; however, English-bred gelding has trained extremely well for his local debut and could easily be better than shown. This will be his first try on grass (bred for it) and the P. D’Amato barn has a superior record with European imports.

Brian W. Spencer's Daily Picks

Santa Anita - Race #2

#3 Patriot Missile	Impossible to love the 0-fer this year from the connections, but this one gets blinkers and has looked like she handles the main track fine in morning works.
#1 Feeling Grazeful	Debut run was solid when she was well clear of show in that small bunch, and it's easy to see her taking a small step forward to handle these today.
#2 Wishtheyallcouldbe	Brings one of my favorite angles with turf route pace cutting back, and I'd want to have her on my multi-race plays.
Race Summary	There isn't really anything to be afraid of in this spot, so it's worth taking a little shot with Patriot Missile for cold connections. Maybe the debut will prove useful ahead of this second career start.

Santa Anita - Race #4

#2 Big Andy	She's a pretty reliable finisher and goes sprint to route for this second start off the bench. Thinking she might be able to bring another solid finishing effort at this trip where many of the others may be coming up empty late.
#4 Mucha Woman	She's the wildcard here with spotty back dirt form, but she owns some efforts that would be very competitive with this group. Think she's there for a share.
#3 Mama Superior	I've liked her in her last two and come up empty, but she looks competitive with this group. I think she can win this, but I really like the top choice, so she's not for me today.
Race Summary	Big Andy is one of the best of the day for me with a race flow that might favor her late ability. She has never tried this trip, but I think she'll handle it at what may be a playable price.

Santa Anita - Race #7

#8 Superstition	She stayed on well behind a last-to-first winner when best of those near a hot pace last out, and I think she's in line for a perfect trip pressing the pace in this group.
#3 Constantia	She's the one who took advantage of the aforementioned quick pace, and she should get another decent race shape with a fair amount of speed signed on again today.
#7 Venetian Harbor	Her only turf sprint wasn't bad, and she brings a massive class edge to this one, but this trip can often favor course/trip specialists, and I bet she's an underlay here regardless of the outcome.
Race Summary	Superstition should trip out from this draw, getting a perfect first-over trip from very close range, and the presence of the classy Venetian Harbor might keep the price playable.

Frank Carulli's Daily Picks

Northfield Park - Race #3

#1 ROCKINATTHERYMAN	Late-running tactics could serve her well from the rail.
#2 BADLILVELOCITY	Rallied second-over to finish third at 44-1, moves outside in.
#6 DIVA DALI	Showed versatility during 4-race winning streak, changes hands again.
Race Summary	Rockinattheryman rallied for minor awards in her last two starts and could upstage those efforts to a victory with a similar game plan. Merriman gets the call off Rhoades claim, so play a 1-ALL exacta.

- Race #0

#4 SERIOUSLY HANOVER	Good recovery from break, switches pilots, good value play.
#2 WARRAWEE VITAL	Held on to win after setting pace through :54.4 middle half.
#1 SANDBETWEENMYTOES	Gets rail, gets plenty of pace to rally into, price attached.
Race Summary	Seriously Hanover chased the sharp winner from the pocket, broke stride, then recovered to finish third. He chased Warrawee Vital through wicked fractions two back and just missed. Play a 1-2-4 exacta box.

Hawthorne - Race #11

#7 HEYTHERE LISAMARIE	Tough trip as the favorite at this level, deserves another chance.
#4 TELL ME LIKEITIS	Projects ideal trip, must use underneath in gimmick wagers.
#1 NORA TOVA	Two wins and two seconds in last four starts, faces better rivals.
Race Summary	Heythere Lisamarie was used early to make the lead, lacked room on the inside and finished willingly as the beaten favorite. She draws outside and switches pilots tonight, but is worth a win and place bet at 8-1 on the morning line.

Play: San Francisco Giants -155 K Stewart (RHP), K Gausman (RHP) Must Start
The Chicago Cubs entered Friday night's game versus the San Francisco Giants with a 1.5-game lead on the Cardinals in the NL Central race. Thursday’s game found the Cubs recording only five hits but managing to plate a pair of runs in their 7-2 loss to the San Fran Giants. The two National League franchises are scheduled to take the field for Game 2 of the series at 4:15 pm PT with Kohl Stewart of the Cubs opposing the Giants Kevin Gausman.
Stewart makes his second start of the year as he fills in for Trevor Williams, who is on the IL with appendicitis. He comes in 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA, a 0.80 WHIP, one walk, and two strikeouts on the season. Stewart earned the win in his season debut, which came against the Padres Monday afternoon at home. He threw five innings, allowing one run (none earned) on three hits with one walk and two strikeouts in a 7-2 Cubs victory.
Gausman will make his 12th start of the season and puts his 6-0 record on the line. The Giants ace has executed a 1.40 ERA, a 0.807 WHIP, with 16 walks and 83 strikeouts over 70.2 innings of work this season. Across his last three turns, Gausman is 3-0 with a 0.00 ERA, a 0.71 WHIP, four walks, and 24 strikeouts over 17 innings of work. The Saturday Free Pick finds Gausman and his Giants' teammates earning a victory as a strong favorite over the visiting Cubbies.
