6 L-Fiesty Val, Smolin 25-1 9 8 5

4 +Jaimmin Jamin, Franco 10-1 1 2 1
JEWELS FOR CHAMP’S month off is the concern. Had been performing very well. MARY’S MAGIC likes Hawthorne’s stretch. Consider. RUMBLEINTHEVALLEY quick from the gate and often in the gimmicks.

4 L+Betrothed, Bates 10-1 7 2 4
7 L+Lucky Dottie, W. Avenatti 20-1 4 5 5
R’S TONI is a well-timed move from powering past again. ROCKNROLL DAKOTA came up empty. Looked good beating comparable in previous. KIZZZMELIKEUMISSME may be racing closer to the front.

6 L-Silveshoe Chixy, Oosting 15-1 6 1 *4
2 L+Big Bad Brenda, Wilfong 15-1 *1 6 4
FILLISTER PHOITO is sharp and can keep winning, TIME TO RYDE has inside peed to be in position to prevail. FOX VALLEY TASHA lost all chance with a break before the start.

7 L+Admit, Seekman 10-1 6 7 10
8 L+Castielle, Stewart 30-1 9 6 8
IMAREAREALROCKINNREBEL is racing well, and another up-close journey is likely. SEASIDE STREAKER may be in a better position to rally past. HELEN’S GIRL a gimmick possibility.

8 L-Brandon Hanover, M. Miller 15-1 6 4 2
3 L-KOA, Bates 15-1 0 6 4
BEN RACIN back down where he can sprint out and do some good. Post the obvious worry. TRUE BLUE LINDY needed his last. He has back class. CLEARCHOICE DE VIE has shown he can win at this level.

3 L-Nui Ba Den N, Franco 20-1 6 3 5
5 L-La Parka, Seekman 25-1 7 8 4

9 L-Mr Charisma, Oosting 15-1 4 3 8
10 L-Rock Steady Ron, Wilfong 30-1 6 3 4
SAILOR SAM may get to the front again and this time not be collared, GENIE INA BOTTLE may seek and get another very favorable journey. FOX VALLEY PRESLEY is getting sharp and is a threat at maybe a fair price.
NINTH: PACE, COND, NW 3 OR $25,000 (ICF $31,250) LT, PURSE $6,000:
8 L-Peace Prize, Wilfong 2-1 *1 1 9

PN DRIVER MIKE’S ODDS LAST 3
FIRST: PACE, COND, F & M, NW 2 OR $10,000 (ICF $12,500), LT, PURSE $5,200:
6 Absolutely Real, Wilfong 7-2 7 3 9
3 Lottie’s Webb, Oosting 3-1 4 *3 *2
7 L-Cupid’s Revenge, W. Avenatti 4-1 3 6 5
2 L-Straight Escape, M. Miller 6-1 8 5 9
8 L-Allineeisamiracle, Leonard 8-1 7 5 1
4 +Naughtynellie, Franco 8-1 1 3 4
9 Tyler Ty, Stewart 12-1 9 1 8
6 L-Xena’s Foxie, Waldron 12-1 5 3 7
1 Gershwin, Smolin 15-1 5 8 5
ABSOLUTELY REAL fits well here if things go more her way. LOTTIE’S WEBB can get early position and maybe come away with a win. CUPID’S REVENGE might get a smoother journey and prevail.
SECOND: PACE, COND, NW 2 OR $10,000 (ICF $12,500), PURSE $5,200:
5 L-Reserved Parking, Wilfong 8-5 *7 2 3
4 L-Dragon My Boots, Stewart 2-1 4 2 2
3 L-Day Of Legends, Warren 3-1 5 4 4
2 L-RIP, W. Avenatti 7-2 2 9 1
1 L-Prince Of Style, Waldron 12-1 6 8 6
RESERVED PARKING broke on the move after a previous nice effort. DRAGON MY BOOTS might get the front in better shape and win this race. DAY OF LEGENDS missed a few weeks and might have needed his last race.
THIRD: TROT, COND, NW $3,001 (ICF $3,750) LT, PURSE $4,600:
4 L-Loulita, Leonard 9-5 *3 *2 4
5 L-Talk About Valor, Smolin 5-2 1 *7 3
3 L-Calderone, M. Miller 4-1 5 *3 3
6 L-Justa Hinto Spice, Oosting 6-1 6 1 7
2 M Maurrone, Franco 6-1 2 4 6
1 L-Fashion Baby, Stewart 10-1 3 3 5
LOULITA bet down but made a rare break. She does fit here. TALK ABOUT VALOR is likely in line for an up-close trip. CALDERONE’s month off is the concern.
FOURTH: PACE, OPEN, DRAWN BY GROUPS (1-4) (5-6), PURSE $7,500:
4 L-Carana N, Wilfong 7-5 2 2 1
6 L-Round Here Buzz, Stewart 9-5 1 10 7
5 L-Mustang Beach, Seekman 6-1 2 5 4
1 L+Odds On Alpha Male, Bates 8-1 1 2 2
3 L-Montana Chief A, Warren 8-1 4 6 1
CARANA N a highly regarded Australia bred. Won 50% of his races over last two seasons. Layoff the lone worry. ROUND HERE BUZZ won with authority and is the danger. MUSTANG BEACH came off his layoff with a solid effort.
FIFTH: PACE, SPRING POP-UP SERIES, LEG 2, PUSE $7,500
6 L-Gotta Go Gram, Warren 5-2 *1 6 1
10 !Fox Valley Bruin, Leonard 4-1 2 2 2
2 Mazin Blazin, W. Avenatti 9-2 3 3 4
8 L-Thatswhatsup, Bates 8-1 4 6 1
9 Pete And Repeat, Franco 5-1 2 5 1
5 L-Whozzz This Sky, Smolin 6-1 6 *6 2
4 L-Carribbean King, Wilfong 15-1 * 5* 6
7 L+Dandy’s World, Moody 25-1 4 8 4
3 L-Mach Diesel, Seekman 25-1 7 76
1 L+Cutting Class, Oosting 25-1 7 8 7
GOTTA GO GRAM dug in nicely and meets similar. FOX VALLEY BRUIN is well placed in this series. May leave and hope for the best. MAZIN BLAZIN long overdue to overtake a field.
SIXTH: PACE, COND, NW $1,001 (ICF $1,250) LAST 4, PURSE $3,000:
4 L-Street Boy, Bates 2-1 *2 6 6
3 Rockin Pulse, M. Miller 5-2 6 3 8
5 L-Copper Teen, Stewart 7-2 6 7 9
6 Grand Champ, Leonard 4-1 4 3 8
2 L!Legal Lair, Oosting 8-1 4 6 8
1 L-Fred And Roz, Franco 8-1 8 3 9
STREET BOY was stuck inside and got out too late. ROCKIN PULSE is in cheap if he’s right tonight. COPPER TEEN might power his way to the front and prevail.
SEVENTH: PACE, SPRING POP-UP SERIES, LEG 2, TRACKMASTER RATING OF 72 (ICF 74) OR LESS AS OF 1/31, PURSE $7,000:
3 Leader Of The Band, Bates 5-2 *4 *1 6
10 !Rae Gram, Leonard 3-1 2 6 4
8 L-Holden Steady, Oosting 4-1 1 4 8
7 L-Rollinwitdaponyzzz, Warren 5-1 13 5 8
6 +Deputy Dawg, Seekman 8-1 6 4 8
9 L-Ernie The Mooss, Rath 15-1 7 5 7
2 !R Tyler Towne, Smolin 15-1 5 3 6
4 L-Yearboyyear, M. Miller 20-1 6 7 9
1 L-Party’s Jet, Stewart 25-1 5 6 10
5 L!Hezarengade, W. Avenatti 30-1 7 9 6
LEADER OF THE BAND failed first up. Beaten choice could make amends, RAE GRAM may have a lot of ground to try and make up. HOLDEN STEADY was nicely rated and Oosting is back in the bike.
EIGHTH: TROT, TRACKMASTER RATING OF LESS THAN 68 (ICF 70), PURSE $5,000:
5 L-American Fashion, Bates 3-1 *2 7 3
9 L-Illini Diva, Bates 7-2 1 4 5
2 Lous Adonis, Oosting 5-1 8 3 5
10 L-Ally Baba, Seekman 6-1 1 3 2
4 L-Autumn Winds, W. Avenatti 6-1 6 2 8
8 Scorecard Lil Red, Franco 8-1 2 6 9
1 L-Mariah Lou, Leonard 12-1 7 6 4
7 L-Hope’s Star, Waldron 15-1 4 8 7
6 L-Gritty Gator, Smolin 15-1 4 4 7
3 L+Navy Steel, M. Miller 30-1 9 4 6
AMERICAN FASHION caught late at even-money and deserves another chance. ILLINI DIVA had her bet race in months and rates consideration. ALLY BABA racing well. She’s heading out.
