Race 1
4-Pirouette Hanover – last year’s Sweetheart champ was well rated & simply gunned down in that comeback, finds what seems like a no-excuse spot to atone
6-Air Guitar Hanover – gave way out of the pocket in that Simpson division, but had missed three weeks & did well in the Blossom Series at Woodbine
1-Ideal In Vegas – came around nicely to dominate some older foes with speed at Philadelphia
2-Rock Concert – makes her Big M debut fresh off her second win at Woodbine & draws well
Race 2
4-A Rocknroll Dance – Governors Cup champ & 1:49.1 Metro elimination winner appears poised for a big season off a pair of sharp Hoosier Park preps
3-Ideal Champ – like the way he handled himself in series action at Pocono, parked through a :27.1 third quarter in his Simpson division
2-All Stienam – paced a :54.4 back half in his Big M debut, draws an improved post with some upside potential
1-Mybrothergeorge – Niatross winner at two added Lasix for a pair of nondescript qualifiers, making him a mystery
Race 3
10-Finn Man – shows a couple of quality recent miles against comparable stock at Pocono & drops here
4-Thanks For Stoppin – left alertly, then got shuffled & locked in too long, kicked home with plenty
6-Spectacular Man – came to life with a gutsy first over mile, holding third, finds another soft field to possibly end his 0 for 11
3-Success Rocks – was driven aggressively like the favorite & folded tent, might find himself on the lead in a paceless race
Race 4
6-Rockaround Sue – Grand Circuit stakes winner a lot better than her 3yo debut when she was conservatively handled, a threat using her stalking style
5-Blackjack Princess – was rated superbly by Sears & came up shy again, benefits from that acclimating mile
7-Clear View Hanover – flashed some sneaky late pace in :26.3, a price play making her third start off the bench
4-Mikeleh – took a ton of early tote action, woke up & scored with supreme confidence, sets her up for this tougher class
Race 5
3-Simply Business – $1 million Metro upsetter narrowly beaten in that second qualifier by the Spring Survivor champ, ready for battle
8-I Fought Dalaw – game post eight winner of the NJSS Final at two, De Pinto said he’s training back great, posted two solid qualifiers
1-Social Network – sprinted willingly in :26.4 chasing the standout Bolt The Duer in the Simpson, look for him to be forwardly placed
2-Mortal Zin – has quickly recaptured his winning form for Burke, big chance to be the controlling speed from an inside draw
