Race 4

5-Racine Bell (4-1)-Hasn't competed for big money since the beginning of August but has been prepped for this weekend. It looks like the time for this classy mare to stretch its legs and come up with a serious try. This is her Mohawk debut and has hit the board in 16 of 18 with 7 pictures mostly coming on larger ovals.
7-Grace Hill (5/2)-Raced big off tough trips starting from the 8-hole in the last 2 starts at Dayton. Had a dull try in the Milton Final at Wbsb on 9-17. Test Of Faith is not in this field, and should be a main player versus this group.

Race 5

1-Raised By Lindy (5-1)-Comes off a rare break after beginning to advance in the Ky Futurity after starting from post 11. This sophomore is no slouch and Gingras should have her in striking range turning for the wire at a fair price.
5-Jiggy Jog S (8/5)-Just missed catching Fashion Schooner after starting from the 8-hole at M1 on 9-9. Comes into this weekend in sharp form and appears to be a clean trip away from a 3-race win streak. Dunn has options with this post draw and should be stalking within reach of (2) Fashion Schooner turning for the wire.

Race 6

1-Temporal Hanover (5/2)-Was caught behind a wall of horses and had no way out until very late in the KY Futurity, actually the plugs were in most of the way down the lane. Should race near the top of the stack and looks like a major threat with a smooth journey.
3-Slay (3-1)-Like the one above had no chance after being parked the mile at Lex and provided cover for Rebuff who won the race. That was a very game 6th place finish and could come back with another Wbsb win off a similar trip as in the Canadian Trotting Classic.
5-Justice (4-1)-Team Svanstedt pupil also had no chance after leaving from the 2nd tier and was trapped inside down the stretch in last. It could be time for an aggressive steer and might be overlooked at the windows. This sophomore has won 6 of 11 in 2022 and we may not have seen his best work.

Race 7

2-Fabrizo N (10-1)-Finally drew a good post last week but then raced wide much of the mile and finished 10th after going off at 7/2. Willing to take a swing for a price in this leg and will start here. Should benefit from a smoother journey and gets a new set of hands in Andrew McCarthy.
5-Typhon Stride N (10-1)-Dunn takes the lines and this veteran was used hard and faded last week after stopping the clock in 149.3 on 9-30. Could land a close-up seat and have enough gas in the tank to have a strong finish.
7-No Free Lunch (6-1)-This 4-year-old was 16 lengths back at the half-way mark and closed like a jet to win at 41-1. Sizzled a 52.4 back half and starts on the gate this time instead of the post 10.
