INDAWIN should be prominent early with little gate speed represented by this group. Only tried the turf once but is bred to appreciate the surface switch. The rail and Eikleberry are the cherry on top. EVERYBODY DOES IT has five wins on the grass. Dropping in class and first time in the Cappellucci barn. HOUSEMAKER has 46 starts on the turf and if the race collapses, she'll pick up the pieces.

2 6 furlongs. Open. 3-year-olds-and up. Allowance. Purse: $31,000.

1: Hpnotiq Rhythm (R. Fuentes, Lund) 119/3-1

2: Chicken Truck (Hernandez, Danger) 119/6-1

3: Yankee Indian (Hamilton, Hanson) 119/8-1

4: Louis Le Grande (Juarez Jr., Woolley Jr.) 124/10-1

5: Happy Hour Cowboy (Mawing, Rhone) 124/8-1

6: Weekend Ride (Negron, Scherer) 124/9-2

7: Wild Behavior (Butler, Berndt) 124/9-5

WEEKEND RIDE has speed and may be looking forward to a fast track and a sprint. Might need a race off the long layoff, but his May 29th bullet work signals he's ready to fire. HPNOTIQ RHYTHM made a nice move forward in last race, improving significantly from her season debut. Somewhat pace-dependent, but if he improves again, he could be right there. WILD BEHAVIOR is the probable favorite but you can question if his form is moving in the wrong direction.

3 About 1 mile. Turf. 3-year-olds-and up. Claiming: $20,000. Purse: $20,000.

1: Warriors Hero (Fuentes, Pierce) 117/15-1

2: Cernan (Lindsay, Kenney) 122/9-2

3: Wildscore (Juarez Jr., Donlin) 122/15-1

4: Yak (Eikleberry, Donlin) 122/15-1

5: Tequila Blanco (Valenzuela, Silva Jr.) 124/10-1

6: Where's Jordan , 122(Vega, Miller) undefined/10-1

7: Logan's Heroe (Arroyo, Rickert) 117/30-1

8: More Than A P (Negron, Rarick) 122/8-1

9: Twoko Bay (Quinonez, Rengstorf) 122/5-2

10: Robinson (Fuentes, Lund) 122/12-1

11: Zorich (Kennedy, Diodoro) 124/8-1

12: Always Cool (Hamilton, Berndt) 122/5-1

TWOKO BAY has had some competitive races on the lawn in his career. Has caught an off-track in last two and should benefit from the race under his belt. CERNAN faced many of these last out and was the best of the group. May be more pressure on the front end today, which could compromise his chances. ZORICH won easily last out against softer. Can he carry that form to the turf?

4 6 furlongs. State-bred. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $36,000.

1: Nora's Legacy (Eikleberry, Bravo) 124/8-1

2: Molly's Angel (Quinonez, Padilla) 119/5-1

3: Stylin N Profilin (R. Fuentes, Lund) 124/6-1

4: Owen's Pleasure (Lindsay, Van Winkle) 119/5-2

5: Midnight Current (Hamilton, Berndt) 119/4-1

6: Maiden Rock (Arroyo, Riecken) 114/15-1

7: Princesa Del Sol (Ordaz, Silva) 124/12-1

8: Sailing Along (Valenzuela, Bravo) 119/7-2

MIDNIGHT CURRENT had a lot going against her in her seasonal debut as she caught an extremely sloppy track and an outside post in a full field. Returns for top connections. SAILING ALONG broke her maiden against open company at Will Rodgers. Came out of the same race as top pick and expect better effort on firm footing. OWEN'S PLEASURE broke her maiden closing late and gets added distance.

5 About 5 furlongs. Turf. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Starter optional claiming: $5,000. Purse: $17,000.

1: Ice Pop (Negron, Diodoro) 124/2-1

2: Fashion Rose (Valenzuela, Litfin) 122/12-1

3: My Little River (Mawing, Kereluk) 122/5-1

4: Some Say So (Chirinos, Rosin) 122/7-2

5: Bentley's Dream (Juarez Jr., Lawrence) 122/6-1

6: Jamaican Cents (L. Fuentes, Woolley Jr.) 122/10-1

7: That'sthewaytodoit (R. Fuentes, Rengstorf) 122/15-1

8: French Rose (Carter, Keplin Jr.) 122/9-2

ICE POP is in really good form right now for Diodoro. The surface switch shouldn't be an issue as Street Boss is a well-regarded turf sprint sire. SOME SAY SO is a hard-knocking 8-year-old mare who has built an impressive résumé on the Canterbury turf, having won six times and over $233K. FASHION ROSE won at the distance last summer at a very nice price. Can she replicate that victory?

6 6½ furlongs. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Claiming: $4,000. Purse: $11,000.

1: Write Me a Song (Hernandez, Livingston) 124/15-1

2: Yo Y Me (Carter, Keplin Jr.) 124/6-1

3: Joe Jackson (L. Fuentes, Kereluk) 124/4-1

4: Grand Omega (Negron, Hutchinson) 124/15-1

5: Texas Long Bow (Hamilton, Rosin) 124/5-2

6: Cimpl Man (Eikleberry, Cappellucci) 124/5-1

7: Sir Brahms (R. Fuentes, Flores) 124/8-1

8: Coastline Sermon (Mawing, Lawrence) 124/15-1

9: Rolls Royce Deal (Lindsay, Fields) 124/8-1

10: Water Patrol (Valenzuela, Litfin) 124/10-1

CIMPL MAN turns back in distance after tiring in the slop around two turns in last. Should be positioned outside the speed and wear them down in the stretch. TEXAS LONG BOW went wire-to-wire last time out and was claimed. Difficult to win back-to-back at the lowest level. YO Y ME is the speed of the speed, but how long can he last?

7 About 5 furlongs. Turf. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Starter optional claiming: $5,000. Purse: $17,000.

1: Saved by Zero (Arroyo, Pfeifer) 117/12-1

2: Royal Privacy (R. Fuentes, Richard) 124/4-1

3: Hawkwood (Kennedy, Tracy) 122/8-1

4: College Party (Eikleberry, Litfin) 124/5-2

5: Uncle Goyle (Juarez Jr., Kereluk) 122/9-2

6: Superior's Boy (L. Fuentes, Biehler) 122/6-1

7: Just Blaze (Negron, Scherer) 122/5-1

8: Man U (Quinonez, Biehler) 122/8-1

HAWKWOOD cuts back in distance in a race loaded with "need the lead" types. Will be waiting until the stretch to make his late kick. UNCLE GOYLE likes the distance and surface. Just missed at this level last out. COLLEGE PARTY ran a huge race in last against many of these. Can he repeat that performance or does he regress?

8 6 furlongs. Fillies and mares. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $31,000.

1: Tiz Tenacious (Juarez Jr., Woolley Jr.) 119/8-1

2: Emerald Princess (Evans, Robertson) 119/9-2

3: Someone Said So (Eikleberry, Rosin) 119/8-1

4: Paytience Pays (R. Fuentes, Scherer) 119/5-1

5: Mo Clare's (Hamilton, Berndt) 124/4-1

6: Credit Enhancement (L. Fuentes, Flores) 119/12-1

7: Hell of the North (Butler, Rhone) 119/5-2

8: Sarjenalli (Lindsay, Van Winkle) 124/6-1

HELL OF THE NORTH had a big performance in the slop in last, leading pretty much start to finish. May be difficult to run that race again, but if she does, she'll be tough to catch. SARJENALLI caught on off-track she seemed to struggle with in her last. If she breaks well and gets involved early, she could be in contention. PAYTIENCE PAYS cuts back to one turn and the distance where she graduated. Sprinting might be her thing.

9 300 yards. State-bred. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Maiden. Purse: $19,000.

1: Furiousity (Martinez, Hybsha) 125/5-2

2: Shrimpee (Esqueda, Stein) 125/5-1

3: Unafraid of Aj (Pinon, Haglund) 127/15-1

4: Gramma Annie (Valenzuela, Livingston) 125/15-1

5: Catch the Drama (Hernandez, McKinley) 125/8-1

6: Kowboy Alex (Flores, Wilson) 125/15-1

7: Beyond the Boundry (Frink, Haglund) 125/8-1

8: Find a Rider (Navarrete, Jr., Wilson) 127/6-1

9: Lady Capo (Eikleberry, Hardy) 125/4-1

10: La Kapitana (Harr, Wilson) 125/12-1

FURIOUSITY had some winning efforts last year only to fall slightly short. Gets the difficult rail draw but might be able to overcome with her speed. SHRIMPEE had two prep races at Remington. Should be ready to fire. LADY CAPO is trained by Hardy and ridden by Eikleberry. Hard to ignore.

10 250 yards. Open. 3-year-olds and up. Allowance. Purse: $17,500.

1: Relentless Seis (Valenzuela, Olmstead) 125/5-2

2: Relentless Streak (Esqueda, Stein) 125/8-1

3: Hes a Terror (Escobedo, Olmstead) 125/7-2

4: Db Quick Sam (Hernandez, Livingston) 127/4-1

5: Myownersbroke (Eikleberry, Wilson) 127/6-1

6: Johnee B (Frink, Weidner) 127/9-2

7: Df Favorite Fire (Martinez, Hardy) 125/8-1

HES A TERROR has recency after win at Remington in last. Looks to break clean and never get passed. Probable favorite RELENTLESS SEIS gets the rail after facing better at Remington. MYOWNERSBROKE has run some competitive races but may need this one, after a long layoff, before we see his best.
