OAKLAWN PARK


POST-SCRATCHES


1st: OC/N1X, 3yo, 8.5f (P5, DD)

Best Value: #5 Seize the Grey 9-2 WON ($13.60)
Next Best: #4 Imperial Gun 9-5 4th
Exotics Use: #7 Blown Cover 2-1 7th
Super Add: #3 Maximus Magic 15-1 2nd


2nd: MSW, 3yo, 6f (P4, P3, DD)

Feels like a firster (2 from Asmussen, one each from Morse, Swearengen & Diodoro) will supersede the ones that have been nibbling at graduation (DiVito, Sharp, Robertson, Lukas). But which? Morse runs a snappy debut outfit and Mo El Grande (5-1) has license to be ready today. May get lost on the board too..

Best Value: #6 Mo El Grande 5-1 3rd
Next Best: #1 Sir Otto 4-1 7th
Exotics Use: #5 Run Jalen Run 7-2 2nd
Super Add: #7 Excitable Boy 12-1 WON ($18.20)


3rd: MSW, 3yo-F, 6f (P3, DD)

Motown Dynamic the filly to beat, but Maker offers Havaha (Hansen), half to Serengheti Empress (Alternation). Mike Lauer has seasonal debut of Pewter's Promise, a home bred full sister to his excellent multiple Indy stake winning Mowins. Mohaymen offspring are slow developers and she could boost the exotics getting 7# from the field with bug boy Bealmear..

Most Likely: #3 Motown Dynamic 8-5 WON ($4.00)
Best Value: #2 Havaha 12-1 5th
Next Best: #7 Cruise Missle 7-2 7th
Exotics Use: #1 Pewter's Promise 20-1 6th


4th: ALW/N1X, 4+, 6f (P3, DD)

Very tricky read. No shortage of pace..

Best Value: #4 Efficiency 12-1 7th
Next Best: #11 Favorite Outlaw 9-2 WON ($5.80)
Exotics Use: #8 Unraptured 7-2 12th
Super Add: #2 Gunflash 4-1 11th


5th: MSW, 3yo-F, 8.5f (P5, P3, DD)

Interesting group that appears to be lacking speed. No short of pedigree on display including Parcells' first time 3yo half to Faiza (Her Best Friend), Danza/Majestic Harbor half Tap the Champagne (Tapit), Laoban half Happy Talk (Arrogate), Salutos Amigos half Off the Lam (Curlin) and Take Charge Brandi daughter Who's Ticket (Quality Road)..

Best Value: #3 Tap the Champagne 10-1 3rd
Next Best: #8 Enigmatic 9-5 6th
Exotics Use: #5 Pepper's Girlfriend 8-1 10th
Super Add: #1 Her Best Friend 15-1 8th

Super Add: #10 Infiltrator 20-1 7th


7th: AR-MSW, F&M-3+, 6f (P3, DD)

Cox firster by Good Magic for Staton Flurry is plenty likely, but note that Jonesborohurricane's SCR'D half sister She's Storming (Hightail) was a debut winner for this team at 47-1 in 2022..
