7 Seattle Mission Comes off an August Layoff. Ran 2nd in a NY Bred Stakes for 100k. Been Working steady and Ramon see's fit to to ride in Return. Looks Best but at short Price and may need a race.

5 Westside Corral Has been off since November but ran well first 2 races while breaking maiden in 2nd start. Clement is dangerous and I see as main Danger to the 7.

1 Wishingonadream Ran well in his return to the track on a yielding track. Took them as far as he could. Cuts back to a mile off his last start at 1 1/16. Will try to take them Wire to Wire. Dangerous at a number. And is the Lump.

SEATTLE MISSION comes off the layup but you just know that Grassman Tagg is going to have this one ready. Never off the board in five turf starts and attracts Barclay's #1 go-to boy, Ramon. Figures to be way overbet.

Lump WISHINGONADREAM went OK over a bog with similar off the layoff even though The Chuckster had him cooked early. Beat open claimers last year at the Spa and will need to rate today.

WEE FREUDIAN clunked the turf debut when well backed but came off the layoff to blow a sprint field away. This son of FREUD could be dangerous here and Chad has been know to cop Belmont's first race for some reason. I'll be covering.

N P CAT also came off the layup running and after a slow start had to come 5-wide to get within a half length of the winner in an open claimer. Any improvement and theis Donk runner is a major player here.

Clement's WESTSIDE CORRAL has been working nicely for the return. He's 1/1/0 in two turf starts but has been off since November.

This should be a good race but I don't see it as a slam dunk for anybody.

Grassman Tagg's pup opens at evens which makes you wonder if you want to go shopping.

Still finalizing a play but a horse 1-for-5 with 4 CLOSE 2nd places finishes as favorite, coming back from long layoff...who is at 4-5. Makes for great betting opportunities abound.

I hear you Stan and I'm fighting alongside Action Jackson here but I know better than to toss Barclay on the lawn with Ramon up.

I may have overbet this race but I'm OK with dough. If this thing blows up I'll be a lot more focused starting with race 2.

DD: 1-2-7/4-6-7

P3: 5-7/7/4-5

P3: 7/2-4-5/4-5

DD: 4/ALL

Ex: 1-2-5-7/4

Like QP probably betting too much on 1st race of a new meet. But so much cash to be made if you can get Tagg out of 1st spot.

P3 2-4-5-10/2-3-4-6-7/1-4
Ex 5-7/1-2-10
Tri 5-7/5-7/1-2-10
ExBx 5-7

EDIT to add 5/ALL/1-4 P3
