Emerald Downs Race 8 - King County Express S. Stakes
CAPS AND CARNAGE (7) Controlled the pace to win by nearly 20L last start at Wyoming Downs and showing consistent performance in races. Flawless this campaign with 3 wins from as many runs. Big claims. DIAMOND DASHER (6) Led and controlled the pace to win by 3 3/4L last run at this venue and was on debut last time. Has plenty of early speed. Stable is in form. Deserves consideration. ZIWHAT (4) Was competitive when 3rd last time at this venue and was a debutant last start. Adrian Castellanos and Tom Wenzel are an imposing duo. Facing formidable opponents. Among better hopes.

At $9.50 couldn't stay in touch when 6th last run here but having second career run. Has a positive draw. Taking on stronger competition. This field likely to be too good.

Nice run when 3rd last time at the track and fitter for debut run. Jockey Adrian Castellanos and trainer Tom Wenzel are a promising combination. Matched against tougher rivals. Some respect.

Was much too speedy in front when winning by 3 3/4L last run at this track and having second career run. Displays good tactical speed. Should be in the finish.
