Race 10 - Maiden - 350y on the Dirt. Purse: $17000 Class Rating: 70

QUARTER HORSE 350Y, FOR REGISTERED INDIANA BREDS MAIDENS, THREE, FOUR, AND FIVE YEARS OLD. THREE YEAR OLDS, 126 LBS.; OLDER, 128 LBS.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
	# 8 CRANKY LOUISE 7/5
# 3 TO KISS A DIVA 15/1
# 6 BEACH FRONT 6/1

I have to support CRANKY LOUISE here. Ran a strong last race. Her 73 average has this filly with among the most favorable speed figures in this event. TO KISS A DIVA - Is a very solid contender based on figures put up lately under today's conditions. Expect a much better effort with the drop. BEACH FRONT - Win percentage with this rider and trainer combo - 22 percent - reliable. Has respectable front-end speed and ought to fare well against this group.

Thistledown - Race #1 - Post: 12:50pm - Optional Claiming - 6.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $24,000 Class Rating: 84

Rating:

#3 ARCELOR (ML=6/1)
#1A C C MY SIS (ML=5/2)
#4 PURE SUGAR (ML=10/1)


ARCELOR - The jock/trainer pair of Leon and Sullivan has a strong return on investment together. C C MY SIS - Dropping 5 pounds from last race. Could be a deciding factor today. PURE SUGAR - Mare took a little vacation, but has been racing into shape. Using this jock/handler combination is a smart choice. Getting a break of 5 pounds from last race at Mahoning Valley Race Cour. She should make the most of this advantage.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 J P'S GLADYS (ML=5/2), #5 PULPIT'S PURRFECT (ML=3/1), #6 COULD YOU (ML=7/2),

J P'S GLADYS - Tough to put your cash on the win end of any entrant that finishes second and third as often as this participant does. This mare showed very liitle last time. Notched a common fig last time out in a Starter Allowance race on Apr 17th. Improbable to see an improved performance off of that fig. PULPIT'S PURRFECT - Don't think that this mare has value at 3/1 in today's event. COULD YOU - This horse hasn't shown very much in the last couple of races. Difficult to wager on this horse this time. Make her show you something in a sprint contest before you bet on her in a race of 6 furlongs.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:	Putting our cash on #3 ARCELOR to win. Have to have odds of at least 5/2 or better though
EXACTA WAGERS:	3 with [1,4]
TRIFECTA WAGERS:	Box [1,3,4] Total Cost: $6
SUPERFECTA WAGERS:	None

NHL | Penguins vs Flyers
Play on: Penguins -158 at linepros

The set-up: I think the Pens are worth the price of admission here. Pittsburgh won't be taking the Flyers for granted, as they've lost four of six in the season series thus far. Pittsburgh also needs to keep the foot on the gas until the final game, as both the Islanders and Capitals are hot on their heels. Pittsburgh comes in with plenty of momentum as well, holding on for an OT win at Washington, before then dominating in every facet two nights later in a 3-0 shutout win.
The pick: The Flyers allow 3.5 GPG this year. Philly enters off two straight losses to the lowly Devils, and I just can't see where the motivation will come from today. Consider Pittsburgh on Monday night.
This is a 1* FREE PLAY on the Pens.

NHL | Predators vs Blue Jackets
Play on: Blue Jackets +163 at pinnacle

You need certain factors to get behind an underdog in this high of a price range. The Blue Jackets have enough going in this spot to be worth a shot.
Here are three key elements that make Columbus worthy of pulling the upset: No. 1: Letdown situation for Nashville. The Predators are off their biggest win and most intense game of the season, nipping the Stars, 2-1, in overtime at home this past Saturday night. It's going to be difficult for the Predators to reach that sky-high level facing the last place team in their Central Division. No. 2: The Blue Jackets still are playing hard. Tough guy Columbus coach John Tortorella wouldn't have it any other way. Columbus is 1-3 in its last four games. The victory was at home against the Red Wings. The losses were all on the road - 3-1 to the defending Stanley Cup champion Lightning with Tampa Bay scoring an empty-net goal to account for the third goal, 4-3 to the Lightning in overtime and 2-1 in overtime this past Saturday to the Hurricanes. No. 3: Columbus has a hot goalie. Elvis Merzlikins is below the radar. He has been outstanding recently with a .945 save percentage in his last six games. Merzlikins has stopped 61 of 63 shots during the past two games.

NHL | Jets vs Senators
Play on: Senators +139 at pinnacle

46 Winnipeg at Ottawa
In 5x5 G+-/60 Winnipeg ranks 16th and Ottawa 28th. In xG/60 it’s the Jets -0.35 and the Senators -0.22. As the expected goals are in the favor of the host.
On the Power Play the Jets have the G+-/60 edge. They rank 6th as opposed to Ottawa’s 28th. In xG/60 we find the Jets +6.54 and the Senators +5.26. A substantial advantage for Winnipeg.
On the Penalty Kill in G+-/60 Winnipeg ranks 14th and Ottawa 15th. In xG/60 we see the Jets -6.06 and the Senators -7.08.
Winnipeg has the better full season numbers, but Ottawa is playing better as of late. Can’t trust a Jets team riding a 3-7-0 run as a road favorite. Ottawa is 6-3-1 as of late.
