light rain in the forecast but track should be fast..A shout out to my buddy "the Lumper"..get off the couch and do something would ya  ..heres some early picks for ya

Race 1 - #6 Side Pocket Harry - driver and trainer switch and he had pace in last..using with 2,9,10
Race 2 - #4 FV Action - consistent and has most talent and versatility in here..caps a Todd Warren double..using with 3,5,1
Race 3 - #5 Cripplecreek Fox - last 2 show tightness but negative driver change could hurt..still taking a shot with him..using with 7,1,9
Race 4 - #8 Katie Ryan - horrid drive in last cost her many lengths..lots of pace when clear..wake up Mr Anderson..using with 3,6,9
Race 5 = #6 Collet Hotspur - speed for position and really shouldn't get beat..using with 1,2,7
Race 6 - #7 Outlaw Wild THing - bad race and he may have needed a first start on track..price should be right and its a bad race..using with 1,3,8
Race 7 - #7 Whirlwindiplomacy - made a big move into a slow first 1/2 mile..pace should be quicker here and a cover trip likely..liking a lot..using with 2,3,8
Race 8 - #3 Holdingallthecards - monster like move in last..tough to see losing here..using with 2,5,7
Race 9 - #4 Dee Dee Sage - flying late in last 2 races..appears razor sharp..using with 2,6,8
Race 10 - #2 Best Man Hanover - too much class for these I believe..short price accordingly..using with 5,6,7
Race 11 - #8 Love This PLace - class drop and a much better trip likely..also gets MM back..using with 2,4,7
Race 12 - #2 Tiger Bait - faces older but these are easier than what hes been facing..using with 5,6,7
Race 13 - #5 Yermanos - gets driver switch to MM which may cause a wakeup I hope..using with 3,7,9

good luck everyone.. I'll need a cocktail later on
