Race 1: 1 1/16 Mile. F.Clm 16000n2L

#5 Just For Casey (3/1) – In a race devoid of pace, the Conductor sees her taking them all the way around again. Gate to Wire.

Race 2: 5½ Furlongs. F.MC 16000

#7 Princess Z Ohsix (5/2) – 1^st off the claim for trainer Kenny Smith and 2^nd off the layoff she has good early speed and was only beaten a length vs tougher last time. She’ll win today.

Race 3: 1 1/16 Mile. F.Clm 30000n2L

#5 Turkmenistan (9/2) – She’s run back to back closing thirds at this level, but both times she hasn’t had much pace to run at. She’ll get a better setup today.

Race 4: 5½ Furlongs. Clm 8000

#11 We Did (20/1) – His race two starts back makes him very competitive at this level and he loves to win races.  The Conductor will key him at a big price in the exacta and trifecta.

Race 5: 6 Furlongs. S.Alw 84000n2L

1/1A Entry (3/1) – Both entries have a big chance the Conductor will take the two.

Race 6: 1 1/16 Mile. F.Mdn 83k

#4 Goodbye Earl (9/2) – Stretching out at Oaklawn for the 1^st time, the Conductor like to see two sprints before a route.  She’s exiting races that have come back live.

Race 7: 6 Furlongs. Clm 10000b

*Double Barreled Shotgun Shots of the Day #7 Because It’s Time (6/1) – 2^nd off the layoff and dropping in class, he has the back class to crush this field.

#8 Spa Shackalacka (9/2) – Shipping in from Santa Anita, he’s gutting back to a sprint, dropping in class and posted strong works over the surface.

Race 8: 6 Furlongs. OC 62500n1x

*Never a Doubt Lock From God #4 Jack Van Berg (2/1) – Cutting back to a spring after setting blistering fractions going longer, he’s the one to beat.

Race 9: 6 Furlongs. S.Mdn 83k

#11 Silver City Blues (8/1) – He’s working well, and his sire wins at 19% with 1^st time starters. Trainer Lon Wiggins is also 19% with a +$2.38 ROI with debut runners this year.
