------------------------------------------
FIRST RACE Probable Post 1:00 PDT 1 1/16 Miles. All
Weather. 3-Year-Olds and Up. Fillies and Mares. Claiming
($12,500 to $10,500). Purse: $20,000
5 Malusita (3-1)
6 Look to the Sky (9-5)
1 Lucy Got Lucky (5-2)
4 Twodollarstowin (4-1)
5 Malusita prepped on the grass for this; gets back to her
best, routing on the main track leaving the question, what
took so long? 6 Look to the Sky has thrived since hitting
the Morey barn; why not three in a row? 1 Lucy Got Lucky
has not run a bad one since entering the Canani barn; can
handle the non-conditional class hike. 4 Twodollarstowin
finished well in local try to snag the runner-up spot;
chance to land a share.
------------------------------------------
SECOND RACE Probable Post 1:30 PDT 4 1/2 Furlongs. All
Weather. 2-Year-Olds. Fillies. Maiden Special Weight.
Purse: $41,000
2 Stealthy (7-2)
4 Shoo Gee (7-2)
7 Queen of Tahoe (5-2)
6 Swiss Wild Cat (3-1)
5 Twisp (10-1)
2 Stealthy debuts for Miller-Baze; will be out flying off
that work tab. 4 Shoo Gee debuts for the red hot Solis
connections; pulled it off on Thursday, only the latest. 7
Queen of Tahoe is working well for the hot trainer; looks
like a newcomer race. 6 Swiss Wild Cat closed well in
debut; may have to pick it up to catch these up front. 5
Twisp tired, when bet in debut; Harrington preps them well
for the return.
------------------------------------------
THIRD RACE Probable Post 2:01 PDT 6 1/2 Furlongs. All
Weather. 3-Year-Olds and Up. Starter Allowance (N2L).
Purse: $25,000
4 Gray Zulu (7-5)
5 Muqtabe (7-2)
6 Detroit Donnie (4-1)
1 Eze Does It (3-1)
4 Gray Zulu and 5 Muqtabe figure to duke it out from the
start; with nothing with the ability to go by, the one to
the top will probably win. 1 Eze Does It ran well with
better, then broke through on the drop; figures to be
involved to the wire and pick up the pieces if it falls
apart. 6 Detroit Donnie has speed but is light on the
Beyer’s, battles with the rest for a minor award.
------------------------------------------
FOURTH RACE Probable Post 2:32 PDT 6 Furlongs. Turf. 3-
Year-Olds and Up. Claiming ($40,000 to $35,000). Purse:
$34,000
1 Banner Lodge (2-1) (*BEST BET*)
3 Winsome Charm (6-1)
6 Leandros (7-2)
2 Noblety (5-2)
1 Banner Lodge looks to be the absolute lone speed; has a
chance to lead all the way. 3 Winsome Charm closed well
when got loose from the rail; could use a more favorable
pace scenario. 6 Leandros looks to be in the stalking spot
and gets first run on the leader; may need one off the
layoff. 2 Noblety usually finishes well; class hike the
cause for concern off past tries.
------------------------------------------
FIFTH RACE Probable Post 3:04 PDT 6 Furlongs. All Weather.
3-Year-Olds and Up. Fillies and Mares. California-bred.
Allowance. Purse: $43,000
1 Our Road Scholar (2-1)
7 Blame the Wine (5-2)
4 Be Driven (4-1)
5 Space Age Lovesong (6-1)
1 Our Road Scholar ran a huge one, locally, with better;
has to overcome the tough post draw. 7 Blame the Wine
tossed in an inexplicably bad one in the stake;
Hollendorfer will figure her out, soon. 4 Be Driven has
been chasing the top ones around; does not figure to
threaten the top spot. 5 Space Age Lovesong may find the
way to the exotics window; not much else to recommend.
------------------------------------------
SIXTH RACE Probable Post 3:35 PDT 1 Mile. Turf. 3-Year-
Olds and Up. Fillies and Mares. Maiden Special Weight.
Purse: $42,000
8 Tiz Misty (8-1) (*LONGSHOT SPECIAL*)
10 Go Forth North (3-1)
4 First Settler (9-2)
9 Magic Lantern (6-1)
6 Blue Tambourine (20-1)
8 Tiz Misty was in contention until the unfortunate
mishap; figures to improve. 10 Go Forth North 4 First
Settler ran evenly in first two for Drysdale; time to get
serious. 9 Magic Lantern finished well, down the hill; may
better the rating on the stretch out. 6 Blue Tambourine
blew up the Beyer meter on the main; working smartly and
should handle the grass.
------------------------------------------
SEVENTH RACE Probable Post 4:05 PDT 1 1/16 Miles. All
Weather. 3-Year-Olds and Up. Fillies and Mares. MiladyH
(Grade 2). Purse: $150,000
3 Dance to My Tune (5-2)
2 Made for Magic (5-1)
1 Third Dawn (2-1)
4 Wynning Ride (3-1)
3 Dance to My Tune figures loose with Bejarano; tough to
catch. 2 Made for Magic caught trouble at a crucial
moment; betters the rating. 1 Third Dawn needed the last;
will get best effort. 4 Wynning Ride returned with a solid
Beyer; tries to hold on longer.
------------------------------------------
EIGHTH RACE Probable Post 4:35 PDT 1 Mile. Turf. 3-Year-
Olds and Up. Fillies and Mares. California-bred. Optional
Claiming ($25,000). Purse: $44,000
2 Magic Launch (5-2)
3 Salty Sarah (5-1)
1 My Maloof Rocker (3-1)
6 Bran Jammas (7-2)
2 Magic Launch has returned with a vengeance; back with
state breds in here. 3 Salty Sarah battled the pick to the
wire; have to give another shot. 1 My Maloof Rocker
returns with a solid work tab; may be up to her old
tricks. 6 Bran Jammas finished well in local try; chance
to snag a share.

NINTH RACE Probable Post 5:05 PDT 6 Furlongs. All Weather.
3-Year-Olds and Up. Maiden Claiming ($32,000 to $28,000).
Purse: $17,600
11 Big Wags (5-2)
10 Sonofablur (4-1)
3 Fleeting Summer (7-2)
4 The Robster (8-1)
11 Big Wags gets the favorable draw and rider switch;
figures in a wide open event. 10 Sonofablur fits well in
here; may be able to handle the distance with a fitness
edge. 3 Fleeting Summer debuts for Hendicks at the tough
distance; scores at 16% of these. 4 The Robster goes for
the 18% trainer and the questionable jockey selection; not
a complete throw out.
