SAT - ELP PK4 & W Virg Derby

[Bogey]

Arlington Park

R4- MSW 2yr olds 1 Mile

#4 Thunder Crashes - Broke badly and was sandwiched in debut while making a nice run up the rail at 5 furlongs to finish 4th. Should enjoy the mile distance here and is extremely playable at anywhere near his 10-1 ML odds.

Ellis Park - Claiming Crown

R9- CC Emerald 100k

#12 Chestermite - Two solid efforts since being switched to the lawn. Just missed in a very competitive OC80K/N2 at CD.

#7 Self Man Made - Ramsey homebred was in over his head in the American Derby at AP, but fits well here.SCR

#3 Great Bloom - 9yr old Gelding has been super consistent and has a chance to breakthrough and find the winner's circle.

#3 General Charley - Good shipper and comes in with 96-96-98 BSF in last 3. Should be forwardly place by Canterbury Downs jock Nolan. Nice 3rd in G3 Connelly at Sam Houston this year.

R10 - CC Jewel 150K

#4 Semi Lost - Only runner with a win at the distance. Placed 2nd in 2004 G2 LaJolla at Del Mar and has returned with a pair of decent performances leading up to this.

#3 Ricardo A - Contessa ships in from the turf and he's won 3 of 8 starts this year.

R11 - Alw 22K/N1X

#6 Sentry - Nice workout on Tuesday in preparation for Asmussen.

#7 Greve - Making 3rd Career start and should like the switch back to the dirt. SCR

#8 Cat On the Line - Anything West Point TB Stable sends out must be taken seriously.

#10 Mallabar - Coming in off the bench, very similar break before his maiden score.

R12 - MSW Turf

#1 C's Lullaby - McPeek excels with these types. 31% off of a +180 layoff. 1st Turf try.

#2 Migthy Frio - Mott runner has faced tougher in four career starts and looks to get a nice ground saving trip near the inside.

PK4 - 2 3 12 with 3 4 with 6 8 10 with 1 2 = $36 for a buck and if your traveling light $18 for .50cents.

Mountaineer Park

R8- G3 West Virginia Derby (ESPN 5:00 - 6:00pm eastern)

#9 Zanjero - Just missed in G3 Northern Dance at CD versus the talented Matz's runner Chelokee. Has been competitive amongst divisions best and gets a weight break from top contenders here (8-11 lbs).

#1 Sam P - Finished 3rd in G3 Northern Dancer at CD and seems a bit shy of the camera.

#5 Slew's Tizzy - Multiple graded winner got crushed in G1 Belmont and this is more to his liking. Expect Robby to be on the front trying to cut some soft fractions.

#8 Dominican - Only Grade 1 winner in the field and had most of his success on the synthetic surface.

#2 Dr. Googles Boogles - Roman trainee has been improving and might have the right running style to get a piece here. SCR

#6 Delightful Kiss - Back to back victories makes him a logical contender, but he must step it up versus these and he'll probably be less than 3-1 at post time. Iffy.

Good Racing Luck
