Analysis:

Race 8: A wide open affair and if I had the guts to really single Master Wheels in the 11th, I would go deeper. (2) Currently Flying moves to a barn that is lights out with first starters, (1) Step by Step gets class relief and (5) Cousin Mikey popped a big mile two back.

Race 9: (6) Angelo Kosmos has not had a lot of pop, but has contended consistently and gets Noble here. (4) Lucca’s Revenge gets a change of scenery and he usually responds to that. (5) Go Merrily Along has actually been more competitive than the top pick, but seems a step or two slower.

Race 10: (1) Rapid Pursuit is eligible at time of entry off two straight wins. He is sharp, but so is (4) Yankeedoodledandee with underrated Daren Harvey. (5 )Fancy Schmansy is just a better animal, but he is sooooo inconsistent.

Race 11: Great classification work by McKirgan on (1) Master Wheels. He gets ETE and class relief after beating far better Saturday. J.D. Wengerd’s trainee, (5) Near The Limit, also gets ETE, but has not faced quite as tough and he has historically had a bit of trouble trotting the turns here. Still, he looms very dangerously.
