There are six scratches on the 9-race card that begins at 2:01 p.m. Pacific.

Race 1: (1) Lehigh

Race 2: (2) Carl Command

Race 5: (6) Excess R E

Race 7: (1) Let's Mambo

Race 8: (3) Bella Blaze

Race 9: (3) Thorninmyside

Some of the scratches could be due to the air quality alert in Western Washington and British Columbia. The thick layer of haze is due to wildfires in the B.C. Interior.

The current temperature in Auburn is a comfortable 76 degrees Fahrenheit.

(4) Bella Mia and (5) Philly Baby are the key players in the $50,000 Barbara Shinpoch for 2-year-old filles. Philly Baby romped in her debut but didn't have the best trip after breaking from the rail in the $49,500 Angie. Bella Mia didn't break that sharply from the rail when she finished fourth behind Philly Baby in her debut. Getting off the rail she won her next two starts convincinly including the Angie C.

Bella Mia will break from post four with Julien Couton riding for leading trainer Blaine Wright. Philly Baby leaves directly to her right with Jose Zunino in the irons. She is trained by Chris Stenslie.

The break should have a big impact on which horse wins the 6-furlong dash that has a 5:15 post time.

The track is fast.
