- Date/Post time: 14/12 August: 30
- Races: 8
- Transfers: Choose 6, $ 1.112
Race 1
Virginia-restricted Maiden-Reisers sprint on the turf, and all have colonial starts this season except one intersection.
| 9. Go to Bingo | No, I no longer let another Cooney Horse hit me on the outside, especially one that has now been restricted in Virginia. |
| 1. Difficult mission | Bailes, who still has a great meeting, puts it back to this level where a rally net shortage in his debut from 2025 next to a fast stablemate. |
| 7. Efficacy | Meyers gets Sheldon Russell on board and shortens from a mile, but looking for improvement on the same level. |
Race 2
Seven $ 30k Maiden -Reilators are still a mile on the dirt with speed still preferred, but not as much as before in the meeting.
| 7. MCZ | Spouses quietly have a solid meeting and gets the reins on a Mark Simms Colt for Calumet after a nice debut. |
| 5. | Delacour’s Midshipman Ruin goes on dirt, blinks and a drop from MSW |
| 6. Pico flat | A quick threat in a field that does not have much matching speed |
Race 3
Two -year -old mares in an MSW Go 1 1/16 miles on the turf.
| 5. Black rose | Although a May foal, Casse’s Merrievefeulen an adult first race six lengths free from third place in a mile. Every step forward should win. |
| 8. Chrysalism | Throw the muddy start at Saratoga and Motion’s Merrieveeulen looks much better. Curtis will try to let her forget it. |
| 7. Nikkel Saver | Russell makes the Candy Ride Filly of McPeek, stabilized in Colonial since before the start of the meeting. |
Race 4
Vintage Colonial Race Alert: “Nonwinners of Two” plaintiffs sprint on the turf.
| 4. Agent Kelly | It could be that a non-so-known assembly comes together to draw a small upset. Has been close to difficult competitors. |
| 1. Keep up | Soil Eister, a solid Virginia bred in Virginia, sends a new addition to the DARRS portfolio that was wide in his recent return to turf. |
| 9. Not a cent no -cent | The gelding of Eagle Point has a victory at Colonial and makes its second start of the meeting with Ashton and wins Mount Momentum. |
Race 5
Two -year -old MSW Maidens test a mile on the turf where expensive auction horses may be a bit vulnerable to home breeds.
| 4. Culoor | Duarte’s Colt will have to find a better journey that makes another run on a mile. Lopez picks up the mountain. |
| 2. Caught in time | The horses of McPeek are almost identical, but opt for the Irish bred with Sheldon on board. Work morning with #7 Li Grand Zombi |
| 6. Ramblin | Perhaps with a push in the direction of value, adding the Ghostzapper-Veulen of Sormeaux, well bred for the turf and trying now. |
Race 6
Fillies are facing each other again to fly 1 3/16 miles in an MSW, many come back after solid colonial debut in July.
| 8. Be together | Somehow fourth ended with Curtis on board, but was still within a length of the winner for Thomas in colonial debut. |
| 2. Lorraine | Outran her chances in her local bow, stubborn once they won the lead to give it away. Very close to breakthrough. |
| 6. Caviar breakfast | Look for a new general finish among these colleagues who add McPeek and Russell to the mix. Good race to boxing. |

Race 7
Females with a “non -winners of a different than” sprint on the grass in a field with a lot of speed that puts on one of the pace.
| 1. JZ’s last scene | From the rail, Wolfendale’s filly movers might have to circles to find field or eventually find a path, but always makes a late move. |
| 3. Marian Cross | The presence of other speed can force a change in tactics, unless she finds the management easily. |
| 7. Worth a penny | The first trainer to win a race at Colonial Downs (9/1/97) keeps Boyce on board and must also launch an indictment to be close by. |
Race 8
In a field with five former colonial winners, two this meeting, Virginia-restricted fee/optional claimants sprint on the turf.
| 8. Knockanara | Big Lick has the two winners in this meeting with this four-year-old Runner-Ruin looking for a four-fold. |
| 10. Medaeoch | A threat to the front thread, but grass and the other large lick can thwart that style. Usually in the money. |
| 6. Slippin Jimmy | McCutchen’s gelding is looking for the fourth consecutive season with a colonial victory, similar to Hollywood Walk on Saturday. |
