Best Bet: R1 – #4 Double Account

Value Play: R11 – #6 Gotthisonewish

Race 1: 4-5-2-3

(#4) Double Account has been facing the best trotters on the grounds in recent weeks. Last time he was at this level, he was 3-5. Looking for Wrenn to blast and last.

Race 2: 3-4-2-5

(#3) Bet The Bookie was outmatched in the Stallion Series but still paced a decent mile. He debuts for the Simpson barn and will likely be closer to the front. Can see him tripping out.

Race 3: 3-6-2-1

(#3) Blueberry was a very solid second in PASS company last time out. She’s the logical heavy favorite in here. Look for a price underneath.

Race 4: 1-9-4-6-7

(#1) Four Wide N Flyin’ was a solid third behind a runaway winner. There should be a fair amount of early speed in here, suiting her style.

Race 5: 6-8-2-3

(#6) Payback Moni tried another top level stake last week despite the early break on 6/29. She closed well there and could show gate speed this week if the quirks are avoided.

Race 6: 3-6-2-5

(#3) Wapiti Blue Chip set a track record last time out after trotting a vicious opening half. I’m slightly skeptical because that race may have taken a lot out of him, but he likely only needs to trot :57 and change to win here.

Race 7: 5-1-4-6-3

(#5) Denial came from well back to win in his first start for Brian Brown. It was a much improved effort that gives us a taste of the speed he has. Curious how A-Mac drives him.

Race 8: 7-4-1-3

(#7) Bombay Tom continues to show more speed with each start. He trotted a strong final quarter last time and is likely to be forwardly placed by Wrenn. Price shouldn’t be too short.

Race 9: 4-6-7-5

(#4) Distant Drums is 5-for-5 this year and continues to dominate each step of the class ladder. This is a slightly tougher group but nothing he can’t handle if he continues to stay sharp.

Race 10: 6-2-3-8

(#6) King Of Green was in a tough spot last time out and had a bad post. This group will be more to his liking, and Palone should give him a good spot off the car. If it sets up how I think (6-2 or 2-6), we’ll be seeing if he can outsprint the #2 late.

Race 11: 6-5-1-8

(#6) Gotthisonewish showed some big third quarter speed on debut at Northfield before tiring. He showed good speed in his 6/18 qualifier as well. I’ll side with the potential inexperienced type here at a price.

Race 12: 8-2-3-7

(#8) Gazebo has some okay speed, but is usually too far back to do serious damage. Would like to see Indof use some more gate speed with this guy. There doesn’t appear to be much elsewhere.

Race 13: 6-4-8-3-2

Speaking of Indof using gate speed, (#6) Tiger King makes his second start for Scot Davidson after a decent fifth. Could change tactics and be forwardly placed. If not, he’ll need some luck. No reason to settle with chalk in this wide open finale.
