R7 - Canterbury 110k (Turf 5F)

#2 Mongolian Saturday (15-1) - With a flyer leaving the gate, this gelding has the ability to wire the field. 4TH
#3 Mr. Online (5-2) - Brings some serious back class to this event and there might be enough speed to set him up. 2ND
#1 Determinato (20-1) - Knows how to win and looks to get a favorable stalking trip under a savvy turf rider (Lezcano).
#4 Quality Lass (10-1) - Freshened up for new barn and is battle tested in similar turf sprints.

R8 - Rapid Transit 110k

#1 Palatine Hill (8-1) - Has had a solid year and is burning up the local strip off the bench,
#7 Stallwalkin' Dude (5-2) - Obvious improvement since switching barn, but must prove it on a dry dirt track as 4 of 6 lifetime wins have come on a wet surface. 4TH
#11 Grande Shores (7-2) - Seems to bring it every time, but he currently has a case of seconditis. A good key horse for all spots in Tris & Supers. WON $11.00

R9 - Emerald 125k (Turf 8.5F)

#2 North Star Bay (Ire) (8-1) - Expecting a much better performance with the inside draw.
#9 Longhunter (5-2) - If he's the same horse as last winter here, the rest are running for 2nd. 3RD

R10 - Jewel 200k

#10 Viramundo (20-1) - Works indicate that he's ready to fire off the bench and his races last winter put him right there.
#5 Eriugena (Ire) (10-1) - Top connections have this horse improving and have picked to correct spot once again. 4TH
#1 Cerro (Ire) (4-1) - Could be the speed of the race and he stays. It will take a big effort to deny him from the Jewelry.
#12 Page McKenney (9-2) - Hard knocker is in sharp form and has to be included in all multi wagers. 2ND
