Rodent mindfulness<\/p><\/div>\n

One moment: Imagine squirreled peace. The next: Raid the local nests for vulnerable hatchlings. <\/p>\n

Free<\/a> ones<\/strong>: Rundown…<\/p>\n

Belmont<\/strong> 1, 5, 6<\/em>, 8<\/em>
\nGulf<\/strong> 8
\nSanta Anita<\/strong> 1, 4<\/p>\n

Pay-side<\/strong>: Today…<\/p>\n

Arlington<\/strong> 4
\nChurchill<\/strong> 5, 6
\nDelpark<\/strong> 6
\nGolden Gate<\/strong> 7, 8, 9
\nLouisiana<\/strong> 9
\nLone Star<\/strong> 9
\nMonmouth<\/strong> 4, 7, 11<\/em>
\nPimlico<\/strong> 4, 6<\/em>, 7<\/em>, 9
\nSuffolk<\/strong> 4, 7
\nWoodbine<\/strong> 2, 5<\/em>, 8<\/p>\n

Today’s Stakes Pageantry<\/strong>: Bel 5<\/strong> on the free<\/a><\/strong> page. WO 8<\/strong> on the pay-side.<\/p>\n

The obvious #5 Effie Trinket<\/strong> deserves it in Bel 4<\/strong>. Same goes for #3 Dad’z Laugh<\/strong> in Crc 5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Live co-third-choice on the morning-line in Gulf 7<\/strong>: #3 Lilbourne Eliza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Looks like a cold-puncher’s box in SA 7<\/strong>: #1 Clubhouse Ride<\/strong>, #2 Fury Kapcori<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Tiptoeing around the morning-line fave, though, in the next race<\/strong> there: #7 Diversy Harbor<\/strong>, #8 Room Service<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Les Bois 7<\/strong> has #3 Dark Brago<\/strong> looking too tough. Likewise #7 Famous Alice<\/strong> in PennNat 1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, Race 2<\/strong> there is the Race of the Evening, featuring your NBCSN Upset Alert Upset Alert Quadruple Stumper of the Night: #2 Stormofthecentury<\/strong>, #11 Great Attack<\/strong>, #12 Ol Army<\/strong>, #9 Sensible Lady<\/strong>. Hoo-boy.<\/p>\n

Tiptoeing around the fave in Race 3<\/strong> via #5 Taptowne, #2 Arlo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Longshot Triple Threat Horsey in Race 4<\/strong>: #7 Coastline<\/strong>. We’ll see. And in Race 6<\/strong>, #6 Uptown Boy<\/strong> is not out of it.<\/p>\n

Over to Prairie<\/strong> now, and #1 Sugar Shock<\/strong> should not be much of one in Race 6<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Yesterday’s Activity<\/strong>: Only one winner, but it counts.<\/p>\n

Over at the Pimlico, Third Bonkersmate Manchurian High took Race 7 at $42.80. <\/p>\n

Manchurian High, eighth of 10 on the conventional V6 Betting Line and without Fair Odds in a contentious race, still was good enough on the LifeLiner Speed Column analysis, 82. He was 20-1 on both the morning line and in real life. He won by a determined half-length. <\/p>\n
