HAWTHORNE

1: Longshot race: THE NURSING HOME ROUTE
The ML fave is 11 years old, and the rail horse is 10, with 115 starts. 
#6, Bubba Boy, is about half their age and rounding into form, with a sloppy last race, listed at 8-1

2: MAIDEN ROUTE, Longshot.
5: Saratoga Victor, 2 months off, wrong jockey, wrong style.
2- Carson City Dude, place last in tough class.

3: Ill. ALLOWANCE 1X, Longshot.
6- Gato's Pirate, just missed last against tougher field. 25% trainer.
5- W W Case Ace, same 25% trainer.
3- Night Genius, loves to place.
7- Skating Sam. Good race vs. open company, now in state-restricted.

4: STARTER CAP. No pick.
1- Happiness. 9 years old, big winner off layoff, but claimed by a lesser trainer. Looks like a candidate for a bounce. Just about any horse could win this race.

5: ILLINOIS-BRED STAKES. Another tough race.

6: MEAFARA STAKES
4-Paddy Wak Wakie. Astonishing last, first Lasix.

7: ILLINOIS DERBY
5-Denis of Cork

5- Tanna Gold.

9: CLAIMER, NW3
4-Siteofawinner
