Sweet Home, Chicago.

To cap off a splendid horse racing weekend we return to one of the most beautiful horse racing facilities in the world, magnificent Arlington Park.

Arlington Park Race 7 {Chicago Handicap~G3~7 furlongs~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
Brace yourself, there are always surprises over the Arlington Park poly-track surface.  This comes up as a extra high quality competitive race.  Any one of these gals can make her way into the winners circle.  The race is well balanced in running styles and most in here are poly-monsters.

#8 Hot Hot Mama (Graham / Corder) appears to have a slight edge with the highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression, and three excellent, peaking workouts.  Jockey, James Graham is always in the zone for the big races.  That gives this gal a great chance for victory.
$2 SHOW.

#5 Devil By Design (Nakatani / Mott) will bring on a mighty challenge coming of an extended layoff, but has fired well by winning off a similar layoff.  She holds the highest speed number at the distance and has put in a wickedly good, peaking workout tab.  Should track the pace ready to strike in the stretch.
$2 SHOW.

#6 Lookn Even Finer (Napravnik / Stidham) looks ready to fire another great seven furlong effort as she has done over the Keeneland poly-track.  She has a two race progression with two o.k. last out speed numbers and she holds the fourth highest speed number at the distance.  A speedster that could hold-on for a piece of the purse pie.  She could be the big surprise.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#3 Homes The Best (Perez / Williamson) loves the Arlington Park poly.  She holds the highest speed number over the AP poly and is 82% in the money over it.  She will be flying late.  Should a torrid pace develop with the speedsters in here, she could pick up the pieces.

#4 Hooh Why (Santana / Reavis) is another lover of AP poly with a 100% in the money record over four races.  She has the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a three race progression, and two athletic workouts.  She is the top poly-monster racing well over Keeneland, Arlington Park, and Woodbine.  She will be tracking and in the hunt.

10 CENT Superfecta
