Race 1 

4-Donna Party – qualified with more speed & sustain for Fanning, lightly-raced filly with upside looks ready for the light competition in this one 

 

5-Tollfree Hanover – took a shot at some tougher fillies in the TLC & got hopelessly parked in that Final, appears to be the one to beat 

 

Race 2 

6-Man’s Treasure – attacked first over a long way, grinded down Falcon Bluestone, then yielded to the favorite in a very encouraging first trip over this track 

 

1-Falcor Bluestone – brushed & took on steady late pressure before fading in the slop, benefits from that experience & draws better  

 

Race 3 

7-Keystone Raptor – 0 for his last 21, ships down from Woodbine after missing 33 days, picks up Sears in spot that looks gift-wrapped  

 

4-Aquestionoftime A – 10yo veteran makes his 2012 debut for the high percentage Scott Di Domenico, latest qualifier better than the first 

 

3-GoGo Buckeye – beaten favorite off a tough trip at Yonkers hasn’t raced in 30 days, yet won for this price there two starts back 

 

8-Max A – just 1 for 34 last year, but just missed a qualifier here with good speed, that kind of effort could be enough in this field 

 

Race 4 

4-Connie Lauxmont – was very confidently driven to his fourth straight win by Sears, primed for a match-up with the other round one winner 

 

2-Trouble – attacked the heavy favorite boldly & wore him down gamely, Team Orange Crush have this colt pointing in the right direction 

 

Race 5 

1-Blade Runner – forced three-wide early off dull cover with late pace chasing the rated standout Oscar Oscar while all out, acclimated now & moves inside 

 

2-Colonel Moffitt – worked out a live cover trip, rallied stoutly & wrapped up late in his Nat Varty debut here, sports some great numbers last year
