Check out my Monday (9-15-25) Presque Isle Downs Race 6 analysis below.

PID 6 (OC-40k, 3&up, 1 mile 70 yards all-weather) – Post Time  5:45 PM ET
Primary – #2 CALVIN’S RIDE, #4 Happyisashappydoes
Secondary – #6 Secret Trouble

Horse Comments: 

#2 Calvin’s Ride (5-2) was part of the exacta in all five local route since moving to the Kevin Rice barn. The versatile gelding captured his last two $25k events at this distance and is sharp enough to win again for a productive jockey-trainer team. 

#4 Happyisashappydoes (6-5) exits a show finish in a turf route at Colonial (beaten 9 lengths). He has a good overall record at Presque Isle (10 6-3-0) and might be the one to catch under his winning rider Antonio Gallardo. 

#6 Secret Trouble (9-2) won a local $12.5k sprint on Aug. 12 and he rallied to finish a clear third in a similar local route on Aug. 20. The sophomore gelding rallied from far back to complete the trifecta at Mountaineer on Sept. 3.
