Monday

Race 2
WESTERN PIRATE as been competitive against decent company lately, I'm not sure where he'll fit in this placeless race
Ridden aggressively to the lead, he got brave and went on to wire this bunch without feeling the stick (1st by 4, $7.80)

Race 3
WILLA WANDO is one of a barn full of Ohio-breds that are going to keep Jeff Radosevich smiling this season
Took the lead after a quarter, ridden out to win (1st by 2, $3.20)

Race 4
ARANKA JANA was so much the best in her Thistledown debut that her price will make it difficult to bet on her, but betting against this filly may be just as reckless
Off with confidence and leading into the turn,, she folded her tent when headed (4th by 25)

Race 6
I can't imagine a more interesting MC2500
Nabu Morales' Charles Town find, LOVER LEX,  took the money and won in front of Radosevich's well thought of first time starter, A BREW IN THE WOODS by Milwaukee Brew. This was the first horse last raced at CT to run for Morales this season. Rettele and Schuster also had maidens in here.
