2nd: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 6f (P4, P3, DD, Super) 
 
Interestring group with no distinct pecking order. You could do worse than taking ashot on Contessa with the added Castellano goodness..

Exotics Use: #3 Persian Lime 5-2 3rd

3rd: NYSS Park Avenue, 3yo, 6.5f (P3, DD, Super) 
 
Fun state-bred group with 7-5 fave obvious horse to beat. But after that, the pair of Ubilio runners (#4 Warrior Up & #7 With a Cape) both have good looks that can boost the exotics. The key is keeping Jacobson second timer (#1 Wishingonastar) out of the triple.. 
 
Most Likely: #3 Darrin's Dilemma 7-5 WON ($2.60)

Struggling here as race has feel of chaos with vulnerable favorites and potential for some jump up efforts..

Next Best: #6 Our Eli 5-2 2nd 
Exotics Use: #9 Mazara Del Vallo 15-1 10th 
Super Add: #5 Sound of Drums 10-1 3rd 
 
 
8th: Waldoboro, 3+, 6f (DD) 
 
Garden variety Grade III race disguised as an overnight; Note that one of the Pompa entrymates will SCR; KMc (#5 Trappe Shot) is usually very strong with these kinds of layoffs, but can't blame those going against if the thinking is that this is simply a comebacker with an eye on bigger fish that lie ahead; #2 Deputy Daney (15-1) is an intriguing item in here as perhaps the purest of the speeds, and if left to himself, might take them deep into the race under clever-in-this-role Cornelio..  
 
Most Likely: #3 Rule by Night 5-2 3rd 
Next Best: #5 Trappe Shot 8-5 WON ($3.90) 
Best Value: #2 Deputy Daney 15-1 4th
