|---|---|---|---|---|

Expecting New Recruit to bounce to the front and lead from the low draw. RENOVATIONS (9) is a class dropper fresh up. Wide draw. Course placed. Looks the winner still no matter the footing on offer today. DARCI'S ANGEL (10) has been not too bad at all in her last two runs. Wide gate in this field. Still a trifecta and first four chance for your multiples. LA MEZQUITA (11) the rider atop today has yet to miss the top three on her. Class dropper in this too. Can cope with the wide draw as well. Include. PHOEBE BUFFAY (13) was disappointing at her last start. Chance here at first home track run. EL ARISH (5) is a class riser resuming. Trial third at the start of this month. Not the worst in this without a doubt. SUGGESTED PLAY: Renovations is a win wager.
