Best bet: LET IT RIDE (7)Best value: SHOOT THE NICKEL (9)<\/p>\n
FIRST: Liberty Rising is riding a forward line on the numbers; rates close call. Let’s Get Weird could play out as the main speed with aggressive handling; dangerous. Dormello makes first start with maiden-claiming tag; don’t ignore.<\/p>\n
SECOND: City Blocks is 2-for-2 at the 7-furlong distance. Ariana Rye is rested and owns positional speed. Bam’s Bliss Kiss exits front-end score at Finger Lakes last out; must be factored into the mix.<\/p>\n
THIRD: Bold Endeavor ships in from Parx after clear-cut win at this level last out; more to come. Suerte is fleet-footed and drops; dangerous if all is well. Winter’s Ghost makes third start of form cycle; price will be tempting.<\/p>\n
FOURTH: Blenheim Baby drops and could be in the garden spot if pace meltdown ensues. Spirit of Esther is speedy and could prove tough on a soft lead. That’sthefactjack was a sharp second in last; must consider.<\/p>\n
FIFTH: Sixer was a tough-trip fifth in debut; improvement predicted. Fort Griffin is fleet-footed and looms the controlling front-runner. Game for It is a newcomer that’s firing bullets; very interesting.<\/p>\n
SIXTH: Fric and Frac get class relief, adds blinkers and returns to dirt; breakthrough expected. Island Charlie is quick from gate and drops; dangerous. Hello Newman is riding a forward line on the numbers; don’t dismiss.<\/p>\n
SEVENTH: Let It Ride should make forward move with return to main track; both wins on Big A loam. Shattuck looms the prime beneficiary if pace meltdown ensues. Disarmed is working sharply for first start since March; don’t overlook.<\/p>\n
EIGHTH: Tall Paul, 1-for-1 at Aqueduct, makes first start for John Terranova. Braciole needs help up front but will offer juicy odds; worth a look. Man in Finance was a determined winner in last; right in the thick of this.<\/p>\n
NINTH: Shoot the Nickel drops two price levels after wide third in last; more in tank. Cousin Ed was a winner in lone start on Big A dirt; dangerous. Dialbolico bounced last time after game placing in prior; rebound threat. Wajda’s speed always gives her a chance; be no surprise.<\/p>\n
