Analysis:

Race 7: (6) Bettor’s Edge may be a good single here but I’m also using (7) Jeneral Patton, a quality pacer who has been facing tougher at Yonkers and had tough posts in last two starts.

Race 8: (8) Mr Lover is my top pick here as he drops below the level of his win two starts back. I’m also using (3) Possessed Fashion and (9) Can Do, both are also dropping in class.

Race 9: This is a wide open race so I’m using all four of my listed contenders, (1) Rainbow Romance N, (2) Itrustyou, (6) National Seelster and (8) Southwind Lindy.

Race 10: (1) Sir Sam’s Z Tam drops and has a right to out class these. (4) Purdy Sam raced gamely from a tough spot last week.
