Just a few thoughts:

In race 6, #2 Wanna Winna should be taken seriously. He's dropping a ton, facing a much easier field than he has in his last two and his figures are on the rise, specifically back to the best he ran as a 2YO (albeit in the slop).

In the 7th, Spurred looks solid but Distorted Reality is undoubtedly the one to beat. Donk is red-hot on the weeds with four wins in the seven days of turf racing.

In addition to the three you have in the 8th, give In Command a look. She's a little short of the best in here in terms of figures but she has caught speed favoring tracks and/or slow paces in each of her last three. The pace isn't exactly going to be scorching in here and that's why Striking Tomisue will be tough. Personally, I think Miss Buddhafull's race last time was a pre-cursor to a big regression. It's also worth noting that Contessa has been atrocious with any horses that aren't owned by Winning Move as six of his seven wins at the meet are for WM.

The ninth is a cluster f but there are a few things to like about Gold West. The last probably shook some rust off and he's bred top and bottom for the weeds. His lone turf try was against much better also.

Interesting sequence and even with the 7th looking like a two-horse race (still, good luck to PGiaco) there's potential to make a nice little score.

Good luck!

Any chance we can get Castellano to fly in on short notice and reproduce his stellar last out ride on Spurred?
