Race 2 – Tam
#6 Plenty Elusive (6-1) ***
Our Eyes: Ness claimed this gelding and won last time out. He moves him off the frontrunning victory and he could be tough right back.
Jeff’s Playbook: 3 units to win, 5 units to place and 6 units to show. EXBX 6-3.

#6 Do Yahwanna Salsa (7-2) ***
Our Eyes: This is a first-timer from the Gerald Bennett barn, which gets 21% first out winners. The sire Two Step Salsa gets 14% first-time winners. Edwin Gonzalez has won 25% of his mounts with Bennett at the meet.
