Penn National fires up a 7-race Wednesday card on June 10 under overcast skies and warm 80-degree temperatures. The surface is dirt for the majority of the afternoon, with one turf sprint tucked into Race 3 to keep things interesting. Conditions look manageable — no rain in the forecast, and the track should play consistently throughout the day.

The card mixes allowance company, claiming races, and a pair of maiden events, giving you plenty of angles to work with whether you're cashing win bets or building multi-race tickets. Three races are free for all TrackWiz readers, and four premium races round out the full card for subscribers.

Best Bets

Race 1

5:45 PM EDT

Allowance · 5 1/2 fur · Dirt

A clear top-two standout in this allowance sprint, with Paterno and Chilling Hassle separating themselves on the ratings — but a handful of closers could complicate the exacta.

win4PaternoML 2/1

Paterno is the class of this field by the numbers, posting a TrackWiz rating of 88.54 — the highest in the race — while also owning the best career win rate at 33%. That one-in-three lifetime strike rate is elite for this level, and his average speed figure of 55 ties for best on the board. Trainer Bruce M. Kravets sends him out at a relatively modest 2/1 morning line, suggesting confidence, and Yabriel O. Ramos is a capable pilot to execute the trip.

place3Chilling HassleML 4/1

Chilling Hassle rates as the clear second-best in the field with an 81.36 TrackWiz score and a 20% career win percentage that speaks to consistent form. Trainer Kathleen A. Demasi has her pointing here at 4/1 on the morning line, which represents solid each-way value if Paterno steals the show up front. She's a logical exotics anchor — good enough to hit the board even if she can't catch the top selection.

show6RudiobusML 9/2

Rudiobus rounds out the top three with a 74.42 rating and an average speed figure of 55 that matches the upper tier of this sprint. At 9/2 on the morning line, he offers decent value for trifecta construction — his profile suggests he'll be competitive without necessarily having the peak ceiling of the top two. Worth including underneath in multi-leg wagers.

Race 2

6:14 PM EDT

Rating Optional Claiming · 1 mi · Dirt

Two horses — Bugged Out and Wink of an Eye — dominate the ratings in this one-mile Rating Optional Claiming affair, setting up a potential exacta rematch with the rest of the field playing for scraps.

win2Bugged OutML 5/2

Bugged Out earns the top spot with a 87.81 TrackWiz rating and an average speed figure of 53 around two turns, which is the relevant test here at a mile. His 14% career win rate is modest, but the rating separation over most of the field is hard to ignore. Trainer Charles A. DeMario sends him out at 5/2 on the morning line, and David Cora aboard gives him a competent pilot to stalk the pace and pounce late.

place4Wink of an EyeML 8/5

Wink of an Eye is the morning-line favorite at 8/5 and backs it up with a 28% career win rate — the best in the field by a wide margin. Her 84.94 rating is right behind Bugged Out, and that win percentage suggests she fires with regularity rather than running big only occasionally. The pace setup over a mile could set up for a presser like her, and Angel R. Rodriguez has the experience to maximize the trip.

show1Bossy JeansML 3/1

Bossy Jeans is a clear step below the top two on ratings (44.18), but at 3/1 on the morning line she could outrun her price if the top pair exhaust each other. Trainer Keri Brion has a knack for positioning horses, and a 12% career win rate means Bossy Jeans does find the winner's circle on occasion. She's the trifecta filler here — use her underneath the top two in your exotics.

Live odds, scratches and ratings for all 5 runners

Our free analysis covers the first three races, and there's genuine value to unpack in all of them. Paterno opens the card as the 2-1 morning line choice in the allowance sprint — a short field at 5½ furlongs on dirt where pace shape should be straightforward. In Race 2, Bugged Out steps into the Rating Optional Claiming mile at 5/2, a format that draws a mixed class field and rewards horses with true class edge. And in the turf sprint, Highs N Goes draws attention at 4/1 — that's a number worth noting on a horse our models rate as a legitimate contender.

One thread connecting the early free picks: all three surfaces should be playing fair under stable weather conditions, so speed figures from recent dirt and turf efforts should translate cleanly. No major bias concerns heading into post time.

Race 3

6:43 PM EDT

Claiming · 5 fur · Turf

A wide-open turf sprint with genuine top-to-bottom intrigue — the favorite is far from a lock, and double-digit morning-line prices like Heavy Timber could easily land on the board.

win5Highs N GoesML 4/1

Highs N Goes tops the TrackWiz ratings at 85.62 and brings an 18% career win rate to the table — tied for second-best in a field where grass form matters. His average speed figure of 56 is among the highest in the race, and at 4/1 on the morning line he's not overbet. Trainer Brandon L. Kulp sends him out with Angel R. Rodriguez in the irons, a live combination on the Penn National turf.

place3Heavy TimberML 10/1

Heavy Timber is the standout value angle here at 10/1 on the morning line despite a respectable 72.40 rating — third-best in this field. Trainer Richard Vega has him at a price that doesn't reflect his rating standing, and a 10% career win rate on a field this competitive isn't a liability. Jomar Torres knows this track well, and Heavy Timber's speed figure of 55 puts him right in the mix for a piece of the purse.

show7Shear MagicML 6/1

Shear Magic is a sneaky inclusion at 6/1, carrying an average speed figure of 57 — the highest posted number in the entire field. His 18% career win rate matches Highs N Goes, and trainer Blake Kelly keeps him competitive at this claiming level. Martin Chuan aboard is a workmanlike pilot who can keep him close enough to hit the board in a pace-honest turf sprint.

Race 4

7:12 PM EDT

Maiden Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

Maiden claimers at six furlongs can be unpredictable, but Walkers Beach and Brother Paul emerge as a clear top two — the question is whether any longer-priced runners can crash the party.

win8Walkers BeachML 5/2

Walkers Beach is the standout in this maiden claiming sprint, carrying the highest TrackWiz rating in the field at 87.81 and an average speed figure of 54. In a race full of winless horses, his profile screams class standout — trainer T. Bernard Houghton has pointed him here at 5/2 on the morning line, and David Cora is one of the more reliable pilots on the Penn National circuit. He's the anchor of any ticket in this race.

place2Brother PaulML 7/2

Brother Paul is the second-best rated runner at 78.89 and shows a speed figure of 53 — modest but legitimate for this maiden claiming level. Trainer Erin C. McClellan sends him out at 7/2, which is fair value for a horse who profiles as a solid secondary threat. Inoel Beato in the saddle keeps him in the mix, and if Walkers Beach hits any trouble early, Brother Paul is ready to capitalize.

show3Chucky Our LawML 9/2

Chucky Our Law has a 53.18 rating and a speed figure of 54 that actually edges out Brother Paul's raw number by a tick. Trainer Gerard Galligan enters two horses in this race (he also has Coco No Loco), which sometimes signals a barn with live horses, and at 9/2 on the morning line there's respectable value here for trifecta slots. He's speculative but his figures justify the third spot on the ticket.

Race 5

7:41 PM EDT

Maiden Special Weight · 6 fur · Dirt

The top two in this Maiden Special Weight sprint are tightly matched on ratings and both carry legitimate speed figures — with the rest of the field playing supporting roles.

win3RemembrallML 2/1

Remembrall tops the TrackWiz ratings at 88.54 — the joint-highest number we've seen all day at Penn National — and comes in as the 2/1 morning-line favorite. Trainer Elisha Perez has been well-represented on this card, and having Angel R. Rodriguez up in a maiden special weight suggests confidence in the horse's readiness. A speed figure of 53 may not look flashy, but in a maiden sprint where several rivals show no figures at all, it carries real weight.

place1Itty Biddy CityML 5/2

Itty Biddy City is the other live contender in this race, rated 81.17 by TrackWiz with an average speed figure of 54 — marginally higher than the top pick's. Trainer Robert A. Wolfe Jr. goes with Yabriel O. Ramos, the most active jockey on today's card, and the 5/2 morning line reflects legitimate market confidence. She's the prime exacta partner — use her on top and underneath.

show6Urban ImpulseML 6/1

Urban Impulse at 6/1 is worth a trifecta look, posting a 65.19 rating that sits a solid notch above the remaining three entrants. Trainer Robert A. Wolfe Jr. also has Itty Biddy City in here, so the barn has multiple bullets — Urban Impulse would be the secondary shot. A speed figure of 53 puts him on par with the top contenders, and at 6/1 he offers real trifecta overlay if either favorite underperforms.

Race 6

8:10 PM EDT

Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

Three legitimate contenders make this six-furlong claiming race more competitive than the morning line suggests — Uncaptured Star's ratings edge over the 2/1 morning-line favorite makes this an intriguing betting race.

win1Uncaptured StarML 4/1

Uncaptured Star tops the TrackWiz ratings at 85.62 despite being posted at 4/1 on the morning line — a full two points ahead of the 2/1 chalk For Some Reason. His average speed figure of 55 ties the best in the field, and trainer Leandro Moreno-Barban sends him out with Leonardo Corujo, a capable hand at Penn National. A 14% career win rate won't wow anyone, but his rating profile screams overlay here.

place5For Some ReasonML 2/1

For Some Reason is the morning-line favorite at 2/1 and rates second-best at 83.78 with a 16% career win percentage and an average speed figure of 55. Trainer Timothy C. Kreiser keeps horses competitive at this level, and Wilfredo Corujo has been aboard multiple live horses today. He's every bit the threat the market says he is — if Uncaptured Star falters, For Some Reason is right there.

show2Ellie's BoyfriendML 3/1

Ellie's Boyfriend brings the best career win rate in this field at 23% and a solid 75.97 TrackWiz rating. Trainer Bruce M. Kravets already has Paterno lined up as a potential winner in Race 1, so the barn is active and firing. At 3/1, Ellie's Boyfriend isn't offering massive value, but that win percentage is hard to dismiss — he has a nose for the finish line and merits trifecta inclusion.

Race 7

8:39 PM EDT

Maiden Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

A maiden claiming sprint that gets interesting fast — Rar dominates the ratings, but The Piranha at 3/1 and a couple of complete unknowns make the exotics worth digging into.

win5RarML 5/2

Rar is the dominant figure in this maiden claiming field with an 87.81 TrackWiz rating — identical to today's best ratings posted in other races — and a speed figure of 53 in a field where three of eight rivals show no figures at all. Trainer Elisha Perez has had a strong presence throughout this card, and Jomar Torres in the irons is a consistent presence at Penn National. At 5/2 on the morning line, Rar is fairly priced for a horse who profiles as a clear standout.

place7The PiranhaML 3/1

The Piranha is the logical second choice at 3/1 with a 74.91 TrackWiz rating — the only other horse in the field who cracks the 70 threshold. Trainer Mark Ippolito sends him out with Vladimir Diaz, and an average speed figure of 54 is the best posted number in this sprint among horses with established figures. He's a strong exacta play — use him on top in a part-wheel if you want to be creative.

show2FirstflashofmoonML 10/1

Firstflashofmoon might be the most intriguing trifecta piece at 10/1 on the morning line, posting a 50.78 rating and a speed figure of 53 that actually matches the top selection. Trainer Miguel Penaloza has a horse here that the market is dismissing at double-digit odds, but the raw speed figure says he belongs closer than that price implies. Jean Aguilar takes the mount, and if the pace scenario sets up kindly, Firstflashofmoon can close into a spot at a very generous number.
