1st 8 2 4 3

8 DAYLON CHARMER

On a path of improvement with each passing start thus far in ’08, only question mark this time seems to be the interval of more than 3 weeks between starts.

2 DAYLON HIGHLANDER

That was an impressive debut qualifier with a final half of 58.1 and last quarter in 28.3, exciting to think this promising filly from fine maternal line has her whole career ahead of her.

4 MARGAMA

Tune-up qualifier was fine with a final half of 59.2 in reserve, seems to be on edge for breakthrough first lifetime win anytime now.

3 COLORS GIRL

She was wrapped up and going away from trotting rivals in that Hanover qualifier, conventional wisdom is to watch for one start for signs of near term potential.

2nd 3 2 4 1

3 TA TA TIPPY TIPPY

Was just gliding up first over and cruised to an easy win on June 10, late starting 6 year old mare seems to have much more to offer.

2 DANG ME

Improved position twice in June 12 start to show promise, not easy to endorse for top prize yet due to several gate miscues and winless lifetime stat.

4 CASIMIR HICALIBUR

Bold front end try just missed to a ground saving rival at Clinton, could be forwardly placed again with new found early foot.

1 FULLA LIGHTNING

Continues to search for a competitive class to race in, might be able to overcome slower starting style in this group for a superfecta share bid.

3rd 4 5 6 7

4 KEYSTONE SAMURAI

Hasn’t had a poor race yet in 3 starts back this year, seems on edge to score top prize again and return soon to OSS action.

5 SIMPLE PLAN

Was forced to overcome the outside post time last time and sweetened the tri ticket at 72-1, can’t recommend on top just yet due to winless recent record.

6 BILLIE FRECHETTE

Seemed to give up last time when the flow and traffic worked against her, mare a great fit in London earlier this year and could be the higher priced value play to consider for this ticket.

7 DEAR LADY

Talented looking filly is already a 3 time winner this year with a fast mark from Woodbine, could’ve been ranked higher with any other post draw luck.

4th 4 2 7 1

4 S J MCKILLOP LASS

Took a big middle stages shuffle at Clinton when favoured but got out too late, toppled these twice in May here in London.

2 AEGEAN

Was closing best in the field on June 15 when starting widest for the final 3/8ths, could keep that improved recent form going with inside post draw luck here.

7CAMMIE DARE

Taking the most class relief of all in this field, Richardson faced an interesting choice of 1 or 7 at the time of entry.

1 BUSY LADY BEE

Both return tries since June 1 qualifier have seen improved early speed, lower win % should get big chance to race near the pace again in this spot.

5th 7 3 5 4

7 A WORK IN PROGRESS

Was unbeatable here from May 6 through June 3, already has an astonishing 11 win total this year but backers will have to take a short price and hope his speed try can last from the London post position where only about 3% of all winners come from.

3 FIGHT TO WIN

First over plan last week didn’t work out against a well meant winner that drew from the also eligible, took a life’s mark over this same company just 3 starts ago.

5 WINDSONG DOLLY

On a recent form spree which includes her life’s mark, big asset to leave the gate strongly and many will consider exactor coverage for good reason.

4 KILMARTIN ORPHAN

Mare has really come into her own with excellent 3 race win streak at Elora, same :28.4 closing quarter as June 10 could make her a big upset threat in speed laden field.

6th 8 5 3 6

8 PRESIDENTIAL WIN

Romping win here on June 15 with the top prize not in doubt after she made front, same style of trip looks probable from trailing post today.

5 TYMAL MERCEDES

Passed tiring rivals down the stretch last time when out widest of all, longshot winners like that seldom double up but a fast first half could help again.

3 SWEEPEM

Hasn’t been able to snare top prize from a pair of perfect pocket trips, still seems to be a major ticket consideration with the ability to often race very near the pace.

6 MAHLIA MICHELLE

Speed driven mare often falters at the end, backers will be hoping she can persist long enough in the stretch for a top four share bid.

7th 8 1 2 5

8 NOLE

Took a battling win in Clinton when the owner-trainer suited up to drive, catch-driver Richardson hired at entry time for promising trotter making mandatory class hike for this.

1 RAINY DAY MAPLE

Stakes tested last year but was unable to gain a top prize or speed record, will be interesting to see how she’ll race now after almost 8 months away.

2 REIGN OF JOY

Impressed in many London starts last year with third quarter speed burst to the lead her trademark winning move, would need to show more since sickness setback to topple them all here.

5 FLYING SIS

Last pair of efforts can’t be faulted for lack of effort, versatile filly could be able to pick up a lot of pieces again at a generous price.

8th 6 8 2 3

6 SHANIAS LEGACY

Life’s mark showing on the top line over Flamboro maidens seems to make this one a standout, low price expected for newest invader from the powerhouse Coleman outfit.

8 VER OYE GOING NOW

Qualifier and return race profile now in evidence, this filly showed substantial promise in abbreviated OSS Grassroots campaign last year at age two.

2 CHEYANNE SEELSTER

Controlled the pace to win under urging at Clinton, the same 1:02.1 half looks very unlikely but the inside post can only help keep her progress going.

3 FANCY LANE STARLET

Was showing fine promise until sickness setback, this field’s wildcard today on just how well she’s recovered for this return to the racing wars.

9th 1 4 2 7

1 ONE MORE NERVE

That was a fine first over try on June 15 at Clinton that just missed to a strong favourite, now comes post one while in sharp current form.

4 NORTHERN ZEPHYR

Made the most of stalling cover on June 10 in this company, maybe some show of gate speed can return like the May 17 win at Woodstock to help his cause.

2 ZORGWIJK FIDDLER

Now showing the qualifier and return race profile after almost 4 months away, big chance to race near the leaders again from this fine draw luck.

7 MISS QUIN ADRIAN

Has recently had three runner-up finishes in this London class dating to April 18, tricky to select any higher yet due to winless record for all ’08 efforts to date.

10th 2 4 8 5

2 BERMUDA SEELSTER

Top line can be tossed with no chance for contending position, just two lines down is this mare’s life’s mark from the same post as today.

4 AUNT DIN

Was moulded into an excellent 7 time winner last year under Alex Lilley handling, many of those wins were in London and a return to form could be at hand for this mare any start now.

8 STRAIGHT TEQUILA

Couldn’t withstand parkout to 57.1 half at Hanover and understandably tired, mare is in for a better rated trip today from the trailing slot and has been triactor material in almost half her ’08 starts.

5 DIGIT

Improved position twice from the worst post on June 10, mare often races near the pace here and backers will hope the 10-1 morning line estimate holds up.

11th 1 8 2 7

1 DOCDOR KEVEN

Was a trainer claim on May 16 at Jackson, Michigan, many will like on return to lasix program today for Kina-Forward duo.

8 YOURE THE CURLER

Hasn’t missed a cheque since May 20 acquisition by trainer Esseltine, big chance for a great pocket trip if able to follow tight on # 1 when the gate swings away.

2 SHAWNESSY

Needed the whole track but did win under heavy urging from the pocket for a life’s mark, great trip should beckon again from continued fine post draw luck.

7 CANACO SIMON

Never out of the superfecta in his last 5 starts when priced this way, could’ve been ranked higher with any other post draw luck.

NEXT LIVE PROGRAM: FRIDAY, JUNE 27TH, 2008. POST TIME 7:35 P.M. *(LAST FRIDAY NIGHT CARD OF THE CURRENT MEET!)

12th 2 3 6 4

2 HOT BLUE FAME

Big standout with front end controlling try likely again, low price expected for this entire program’s most probable, his 5 win total is more than the rest of the field combined in 2008.

3 BAD DILINGER

Tracked the winner last start and hit the tri at 27-1, same chance race near the pace could beckon again from this post position.

6 MIDNITE JAMMER

Sat behind a very fast pace to take down runner-up share at Dresden, lower win % sort might be able to find a similar closing brush with these.

4 DCs BUNNY

Back class of this field with $303K, some will consider on price reduction to the lowest level of his career.
