Some insights into tonight’s racing program
(reminder, we’re at it again tomorrow, first post @ 12:30 PM).
1ST RACE – (5) TEMPSTER HANOVER returns to town, where he has lost last 11 tries and 20 of previous 21. However, first try off barn change intrigues us.
4TH RACE – (4) ABNER THE GREAT is sort of hard to go against, second off class dip and ridding himself of consecutive eight-holes. Last effort quite good.
5TH RACE – (5) DON’TCALLMEFRANCIS was pocketed into a 55-second back half in last, predictably backing up. Toughie to gauge, ass-ume he is leaving.
6TH RACE – (4) RUN ONEOVER N gets a first adult-table place card tonite after wiring lesser week ago. Catches watered-down feature, let’s see if he belongs.
7TH RACE – (2) SEVEN HOPES A did not buckle closing into swift last half in latest. Has recent win at this level while many of his foes here do not, so we nod.
9TH RACE – (2) BILL’S FELLA was brutal-trip winner as odds-on fave after crossing border. No shot after trying this level in subsequent, much post relief now.
11TH RACE – (3) SIR PUGSLEY tried it first-up in last, making a menacing move before losing footing. Cost him placing (second-to-third) then, amends now.

Some insights into tonight’s racing program.
1ST RACE – (1) INSPIRATION VIEW does not owe us anything as former highest- price winner of season. Eight-hole to pole for second try off bench, gazed.
2ND RACE – (4) GRAMMY WINNER was both very good and very bad at Goshen, wiring then breaking. One of two lasses in limited-resume octet, cautious.
4TH RACE – (3) SPORTS BETTOR is bupkus-for-13 this season, but decent back half for this price in last. Figures closer from here, so gaze to get off schneid.
5TH RACE – (1) CARSON HALL slapped lesser upon border-crossing, then double-bumped to no-shot eight-hole. Dips and another ‘peek’ moving to the pole.
7TH RACE – (4) D G’S ELSA was one we stalked earlier as she raced up and out of restricted events. Don’t know if she works here, but race came up very light.
10TH RACE – (3) VORST showed some requisite strides in last try at Pocono second off brief R&R. Back here, has to chase inside neighbor who is gonna cut it.
