  1. Tue Par Balle                                  Our Athletes                      Castellano J J

Tue Par Balle was just purchased a little over two weeks ago for $50.000 and makes his debut for his new connections.  His last race at 5.5 furlongs on the sod at FG in March in the Costa Rising against LA Breds for a purse of $60.000 earned him a second by a length.  Prior to that start he went 7.5 furlongs on the sod at TUP against Allowance Non Winners of 1 race where he won by a neck.  Definitely tougher competition today then his last two starts.  His SRF number is 95.5.

  1. Hit The Switch                            Mb Stables                         Velazquez J R

Just won at 5 furlongs on the sod in March at GP against Allowance Non Winners of 1 race.  This three year old gelding will have to step up his game today to be tough.  His SRF number is 91.5.

  1. Dogs Dragon                               Maxmillion Farm              Court J K

Finished second in the Grade II Shakertown at KEE.  The last time he ran a sprint prior to the Shakertown was in the BC Turf Sprint Grade I in October where he finished third by a neck.  Obviously he likes the distance, so expect him to do better here.  His SRF number is 96.

  1. Hold The Mach                            Night Rider Stables          Bridgmohan S X

Last two races were at a mile where he finished first and third in Grade III company.  Look to his first start of the year at GP in the SSM Turf Sprint $150.000 where he won by a nose, and shot a 99 SRF figure that day.  This six year old still has the gas to get the job done.  Could be a good value bet.  His SRF number is 97.

  1. Chit Chat                               Team 7 Illusions                                Santana R Jr

Has only one start on the sod, and it was a win.  Hasn’t been on the sod in over a year, so not much to discuss besides a big ? mark.  His SRF number is 90.

  1. Louis Pasteur                            Blushing Meadows          Moran D

Won an Optional Claimer $40.000 Non Winners of 2 races at SA going 6.5 furlongs in March.  Prior to that he finished sixth at the same distance against Optional Claimer $80.000 Non Winners of 4 races.  I think he has a lot to prove in today’s race.  His SRF number is 91.

  1. Go For Six                               Yankee Doodle Stable    Albarado R J

Finished seventh in his last race at SA in April against Optional Claimers $62.500 Non Winners of three going 6.5 furlongs over the good sod.  Tough call, as it was an off track.  His prior race at today’s distance at PRX he finished second by a nose against Allowance $44.000 Non Winners of 2 races.  I still think if he struggles to beat that class, how will he win today’s race.  His SRF number is 92.5.

  1. People Want To Know                     Mb Stables                         Bejarano R

He has been running routes and hasn’t done too back in four career starts.  His last race he finished fourth in a $75.000 Stakes Race at TAM.  Prior to that he won an Optional Claimer $40.000  Non Winners of 2 races at SA going a mile.  Today his owner is going to try to shorten him up a bit, and see how he does.  His SRF number is 91.

  1. Kiss Thiss                                          Downwind Stables          Rosario J

Recently won over the soft 5 furlong sod down at TAM in an Allowance Non Winners of 1 race.  Tough for Kiss Thiss there will be no rain or soft going in today’s race.  Prior to that win, his only other win came from her Maiden win at RP at 5 furlongs.  Hoping to get her foot in the door against Graded Stakes Company.  Her SRF number is 90.5.

  1. Stupid Femur                                 Lemax Farms                     Landeros C

Broke his Maiden over a yielding course at TAM in January to break his Maiden.  Then came back to finish in a dead heat over a good sod at TAM to win his first Allowance race.  Then had a firm going in his next start to finish fourth in a $25.000 Claimer.  Tough call here, but I think you have yourself a longshot here.  His SRF number is 89.5.

  1. Dragonville                                       Drabfantasy                       Leparoux J R

Tough post position for a 5 furlong race.  He has been racing against route company.  Most recent win came at SA last month in the grade III Providencia Stakes.  Prior to that he won the Grade III The Herecomesthebride Stakes at GP going 1 1/16 Mile on the Sod.  Shortening up a bunch, tough call here.  His SRF number is 91.
