7 – RANDELLO – LS – won first race at INDY with stronger 2/4f pace#s, better 4f fractions
2 – CARTIER CAT – TLRSP#, could add to it in his second start off the bench, 3/0-2-1 at Distance

Race 2 – 6 furlongs, 6 races, 100% speed but only 1 w2w – PP: fair, slight edge 2/3
2 – TRAUMARAMA – since October, last two works were sharp, indicating she’ll be ready
4 – APRON STRINGS – Distance 8/4-0-2, big late move in her last, might improve in her 2nd off the bench
3 – GOLDEN COMMAND – is dropping in class in her third start after a layoff, gets a weight break

Race 3 – 1 Mile Turf, 6 races, 100 won by speed, 3 w2w – PP: small inside three bias

6 – PICKLE FEET – won his debut with the TLRSP#, not the biggest fan of the MSW to NG 100k, TLRSP# is the exception
1 – MR CHAOS – is undefeated in three all at INDY and the last at the distance, none were close – probably should be top choice, but 1 for 35 from the rail?
9 – TOO BAD JUSTICE – finally got the maiden W after 4 seconds, last race had better fractions at 5 ½ vs 5 furlongs in last, could be as good, maybe better in third start off the break
