2^nd race [NY, Md 50000, 6F] – (3) Sociably Johnny (B) climbed going into the turn in his debut and finished second two weeks ago. (1) The Toy Cannon dropped in for a tag in his second start, went right to the lead, and missed the win by a neck. (7) Whiskey Runner was claimed from his first start for $30,000 when he pressed the pace and ended up third. (8) My Munny Talks will move from turf to dirt for Brad Cox after running in a maiden special weight at 3-1 and was second in the early going.

3^rd race [NY, Alw 81000 N1X, 6F] – (4) Three B’s (B) raced wide and missed by a neck in his return to state-bred competition. (3) Long Pour was fourth and second twice in similar NY-bred allowances since his maiden breaker at Saratoga. (2) Beary Funny returns from a February layoff when he was third in a similar spot and was the winner of three open-company claiming races in a row. (8) Roofer had the lead last month and finished third less than a length behind the Hot List horse.

4^th race [NY, Md 50000, 6F] – (1) Grit N Glitter was second in her first start beaten by less than a length in a sprint against open company. He stepped up in class and tried a mile to no avail. This will be her first try against state-breds as she drops down and cuts back in distance. (4) My Devine One ran in a claimer for the first time, moved from turf to dirt, and got a second behind the winner who came back to win again. (3) Ty Ty Rose will drop in for a tag in her third start for a trainer with good numbers when runners go into their first maiden claimer. (9) She’s Bankable is a daughter of a top New York sire Central Banker for a trainer that has good win stats with first-time starters.

7^th race [Comely (G3), 1 1/8 mi] – (6) Fully Subscribed won the Mother Goose (G2) by more than four lengths in her first start in a stakes race. (5) Kappa Kappa won 3 out of 4 career starts with victories in the Ravens Run (G2) at Keeneland in October and a state-bred allowance at Parx Racing before that. (3) Ourdaydreaminggirl was fifth in the Mother Goose and missed by a neck in a blanket finish in the Cotillion (G1) at Parx. (7) Yes It Tiz won a pair of allowances in her recent races at Kentucky tracks which were her only races on the dirt.

Best bets: Three B’s (3^rd); Fully Subscribed (7^th). Best value:  Sociably Johnny (2^nd); Grit N Glitter (4^th).
