Analysis:
Race 8: (1) Royal Morn – Competes in an evenly matched field; the rail could give him the edge he needs to win. (2) Hallin – Won in his most recent effort and looks to do well again tonight. 3- Peyton’s Troubador – Michigan horses typically do well upon shipping to Cleveland.
Race 9: (2) Hogue’s Rockie – Has come into good form and looks to do well again tonight. (6) Senator Sam – Drops in class and may be at a level where he can get the job done tonight.
Race 10: (3) Thiswayorthehighwy – Has been posting big effort; looks for another big effort tonight. (9) Mega Hall – Has been on the board at least five straight races and should get a good trip from the second tier.
Race 11: (5) My Boogie Shoes – Was victorious in his Cleveland debut and could strike again tonight.
