Penn National — Friday Night Card | November 6, 2026
Overcast skies with temps dropping into the low-to-mid 40s and a chance of light mist through the evening. Inside posts carry a meaningful advantage in sprint races; stalkers over front-runners in the routes. Kravets double-entries throughout the card — Chiappe always signals the barn's preferred runner.
Race 1
My Lizzy Lou (1) gets the ideal inside post in a sprint for mares and figures to control or press the pace. Inanoceanoflove (3) is the top secondary choice at 4-1 if the co-favorites burn each other up early. Smart Philly (2) is the safest place/show inclusion.
Race 2
Joyous Song (2) is the top selection with favorable post and sharp connections. Sassy Princess (3) is the main danger pressing from post three. Song To Remember (1) at 4-1 is the best value on the card in this race if the two favorites wage an early pace battle.
Race 3
Bruder (4) is the most logical top choice given trainer-jockey dynamics and inside-middle draw. The Judge And Jury (3) and Inter Miami (6) are the two Kravets secondary options worth including in exactas. Spinning Musician (7) at 6-1 is the best trifecta longshot if the pace runs hot.
Race 4
Maggie K (2) is the most straightforward selection given post position and trainer placement. The Feisty One (1) is the preferred Kravets runner based on the Chiappe booking, making it the top secondary choice. Tempting Lady (3) and Sonadora Girl (4) round out the trifecta at 4-1 each.
Race 5
Youbetterbejoking (1) is the most defensible favorite on the card with the inside draw and uncontested pace potential. Freedom Maker (2) at 4-1 is the best single value play of the evening — Chiappe's booking over Ramos is the clearest barn signal of the night. Tims (6) at 3-1 and Bronx Boys (3) at 8-1 are worth trifecta inclusion if the pace scenario turns competitive.
Race 6
Alder (3) is the clear top choice in the claiming handicap with favorable post and sharp connections. Kalahari Not Sorry (4) at 3-1 is the main danger and a logical exacta pairing. Mugatu (5) and Preach It Warrior (6) are trifecta fillers only.
Race 7
Bigdaddysboy (1) gets the ideal rail draw in the nightcap and is the most straightforward selection on the closing race. Tactical Humor (6) at 5-1 is the top overlay secondary choice for exactas. Tallahatchiebridge (2) at 6-1 and Makabim (7) at 8-1 offer trifecta depth at a price worth the inclusion.
