Race 1: 2- High Blue – Was claimed two starts back by trainer Ron Burke, he seems to have improved off the break on March 5. 1- Montana
Skies – Has put in a couple of monster efforts, tonight she moves back up in class and should be able to handle it. 6- Bowdie De Vie – Could be
a factor with a clean effort. 5- Patient I D – Should get a good trip from mid-pack.
Race 2: 2- Stevie Diamonds – Drops in class this week after riding the pocket a majority of the way last out, expect better. 7- Elrama N – Looks

looking to improve with a better post. 1- Pick Of The Day – Could add value from the inside.

speed and can win the race if he wants it. 2- Fashion Chocolate – Another very consistent horse that is really starting to come back into form.
