RACE 1: 3-4-1-2

#3 Beautiful Blome makes her season bow, which appears to be the main argument against her, as her main rival has thus far failed to win the first allowance condition while this one’s already through two of them; good enough worktab for a barn that wins at a 17% clip off the bench, and rider Cedeno has won aboard her… #4 Principia figures to be winging it on the front end for 5,000 win trainer Ness… #1 Audibly seems to thrive the longer the race goes and will need a solid pace to run into; gets Paco in the irons…

RACE 2: 7-6-1-5

Trainer Jose Corrales has a positive ROI bringing horses back off layoffs similar to #7 Backnthewoods, and the veteran appears to have caught a manageable group if fit enough; not a ton of speed in here, and he’s got some of it while drawn outside… #6 Float On appears most likely if the top choice falters and has tactical speed to work out a trip… #1 Inter Miami arrives off a win versus lesser at Penn National…

RACE 3: 2-6-1-7

#2 Sing Scat beat open $10k claimers earlier this year, and it’s a good rule of thumb in starters to look for a horse that’s won for double the starter price — she’s the only one in this spot to have done so… #6 Pemberley has run a pair of good ones since switching back onto the main track and makes her first start in the Castillo barn (6% first off the claim)… #1 Miss Interpatation appears headed in the right direction and makes her first start in the Simone barn (16% first off the claim)…

RACING NOTES

Jockey Paco Lopez and trainer Jamie Ness teamed up to go 3-for-3 Wednesday as Ness got his 5,000th career win… Among those wins: Spikezone bested a salty group in the day’s $50,000 open allowance feature, getting six furlongs in 1:11.30 and winning by three parts of a length… The “holy” exacta hunch play came in in race four as God With Us won by a neck over Minister… Comebacking jockey Carol Cedeno won twice…

RACE 4: 6-7-5-1

Onetime $87,000 yearling #6 Vino Bella had to drop down to the $12,500 level to graduate, and now she shows up in a good spot to make it two straight (and likely get sold); might be speed of the speed… #7 Sweet and Feisty didn’t show much feistiness last out against better but makes her second start off the bench here and three back just missed against similar… #5 High Hearts had some OK tries at Tampa over the winter…

RACE 5: 5-3-4-7

A couple of early types in here might be good news for #5 Broadcaster, who had an improved outing in latest when mounting a grinding late run for second, and trainer Agostini protects him for the second outing in a row; wheels back on shortish rest… #3 Just Relax appears headed back in the right direction after a confidence-boosting win in latest and figures to be one of those contesting the pace… #4 Patton’s Tizzy owns three wins at the trip…

RACE 6: 4-2-1-3

#4 Sea Zest stretched out nicely in latest to throttle a group of starter rivals by almost five at PRX, and trainer Ness wins at a 36% clip with a positive ROI second off the claim and following a win; will look for stalk-and-pounce trip… #2 People Watching impressed last out to graduate, throwing down a sharp opening quarter, shrugging off a challenge, and going on to win easily in a race that has produced a next-out winner; she should be the main speed, but she’ll stretch out to two turns here for the first time, which makes us leery of favoritism… #1 Krissys Star already has a pair of allowance wins to her credit and is the field’s only three-time winner…

RACE 7: 7-6-3-2

#7 Temecula pretty much always runs well on dirt and has caught solid rivals lately: two next-out winners from the two-back outing when third and an even-money Gulfstream shipper in latest; has the tactical speed to work out a good trip in a race without a lot of front-end juice… #6 Lundi Loot ran well in three local tries last year at two, including a win, and makes his third start off the bench here; inclined to draw a line through two-turn stakes outing two back, and last out he caught the red-hot Paco the Taco Man, winner of four of five… A winner at first asking, #3 Falcon Cove then ran third behind a solid Asmussen trainee and now gets Hernandez in the irons…

RACE 8: 2-4-6-5

#2 Platform may be the one who offers value here after keeping pretty decent company and getting a bit of time away; his two-back outing produced two next-out winners, and last time he lost all chance after a terrible start, and no one was catching runaway winner Firmantown regardless; several of these look to want the same trip, and this one might be lurking in behind them… #4 Great Quality makes his first start of the year for a barn that wins at a 29% clip with a gaudy $3.57 ROI off similar layoffs… #6 Overspent arrives with consecutive wins…
