Please double check all program numbers prior to wagering

PARX   Race 5   6 furlongs   Starter $16,000 (2:13 ET)

Best Value Play: #5 Dark Voyager (6/1)

Most Likely Winner: #2 One Red Cat (2/1)

Other Contenders: #3 Derby Gold (6/1), #4 Joey N (3/1)

 Analysis: One Red Cat ships in from New York after a rest for the Rodriguez barn. Anything close to his last will be a winner. Derby Gold was claimed last out by a good claiming trainer that could get a dream trip just behind the speed. Joey N comes in from another circuit looking for a soft spot and may have found it with his early foot. Dark Voyager takes a nosedive in class and should get to stalk the leaders before pouncing on them.

PARX   Race 8   5 1/2 furlongs   Claiming $7,5003L (3:34 ET)

Best Value Play: #7 Hall’s Village (8/1)

Most Likely Winner: #4 Desire to Acquire (8/5)

Other Contenders: #1 Derby Watch (4/1) #2 Star Factor (9/2)

 Analysis: Desire to Acquire drops on his second outing after being claimed by a good barn and looks the best among these. Derby Watch has flashed some serious speed in the past and another start like those last year could work for this one. Star Factor is an outsider but is needed on your exotic tickets. Hall’ Village has shown some decent speed figures in the past and coming back after a freshener could do the trick for this one.
