50-cent play: 125/1246/4/1478 = $24

Analysis:

Race 8: This trot race is competitive. (4) K Ryan Bluechip faces somewhat weaker and is my top pick but I also used (5) Caviart Luca, who is second off a layoff and heads a Burke entry, and (1) Castle Flight, who was used hard in last.

Race 9: This is a wide open race where my listed four top contenders are very closely matched, 1, 2, 4, 6.

Race 10: (4) Threeofthebest A is in good form and takes a drop here. I’ll single this one.

Race 11: This is another tough race. I’ll use all four of my listed contenders, 1, 4, 7, 8.
