PARX    Race 3,   6 furlongs   Claiming $5,000 (1:19 ET)

Best Value Play: #3 Judy’s Quest (10/1)

Most Likely Winner: #6 Halie’s Wild (2/1)

Other Contenders: #1 Three Hour Tour (2/1), #5 Missbauer (5/1)

 Analysis: Halie’s Wild returns to sprinting, comes off a good effort and has the career record to be the winner. Three Hour Tour has had a dismal season but her recent work signals readiness and her back class speaks for itself. Missbauer runs for a productive barn and could pick up the pieces from off the pace. Judy’s Quest ran much better her second after a layoff despite the troubled start. A return to her form in early 2013 puts her in the Winner’s Circle.

 PARX   Race 9,   7 furlongs   Claiming $7,500  4:01 ET)

Best Value Play: #8 Jediscreto (8/1)

Most Likely Winner: #1 Two T’s at Two B (3/1)

Other Contenders: #5 Won Kool Kid (4/1) #6 College Bound (9/2)

 Analysis: Two T’s at Two B takes the class plunge after a winless year, but a decent effort should result in a victory. Won Kool Kid runs for the highly effective Pino barn and has the numbers to beat these. College Bound turns back from a route after a good effort and looks to be in good striking position in this event. Jediscreto is the most lightly raced in the field but is still capable to improve and poses a threat.
