Some insights into this morning’s racing program for our IdaBet.com players:

1ST RACE – (7) IN SECRET could not match strides with Marion Marauder in Cleveland, but recent form spree terrific. ‘Catch him if they can’ in A-M opener.

4TH RACE – (10) TROPICAL TRICE returns after a pair of thirds at wooden Nichols. Slithers under monetary ceiling for bottom feeders, back-of-bus intrigue.

6TH RACE – (2) SUMMER SIDE is one we’ve been chasing for a while. ’16 Sheppard champ (this season’s race was last nite) needed pocket room sooner last.

7TH RACE – (3) DEWYCOLORINTHELINE is ‘bad news good news’ angle here. Last handful have been poor, slips down to hinterlands, ought to handle ‘em.

9TH RACE – (2) OPTIMIST BLUE CHIP gets desperately-needed class dip this time around. Third off bench, couldn’t sniff classier from outer venues, gazed.

10TH RACE – (3) VILLE VALO is back here for first visit since late April. Was bottom number then and has lost 10 local tries but took air last couple in PA.
