Monday, March 20, 2017
RACE ONE (DOUBLE - 1-2, 1-4, 1-9 PICK-5 - 1 w 2,4,9 w 4,5 w 1,2 w 4)
1-IMHERETOTAKEOVER...first time starter qualified handily and in a time faster than foes have been racing!
5-DELI-CRAZE...compares very well with remaining competition here. Can do damage with usual :30 closer.
3-ROYAL CLIPPER...showed some good gate speed in qualifier and probably on the engine to start his career.
RACE TWO
9-A CROWN FOR LINDY...warrior has outside post, yes, but still can out-sprint these & control the festivities.
2-CHIP CHIP PAGE...gave a nice hint in last showing strong trot on backside while double-bubbled. On ticket.
4-INSIDER ACCESS...doesn’t win often but last was sure impressive in this very same class. Gets garden trip.
RACE THREE (PICK-6 - 4,5 w 1,2 w 4 w 3 w 7 w 6)
5-MATCH POINT...mare chased a good one last couple of starts. Liked the solid trot in backside in last. Edge.
4-TWO DAYS FINALE...does possess some good gate speed and probably on the choo-choo train leaving here.
2-ETHANOL...owns a 1 and 1 record in photo finishes & last showed determination in holding on for dear life.
RACE FOUR (PENTAFECTA - 1,2 w 1,2 w 3,4,5,8 ALL THE WAY)
2-EY COWBOY...gets in very amiable situation here. Can turn on the afterburners & drew well to do just that.
1-SCARY HARRY...pulled on backside in last & showed solid pace final 3/8s of the mile. Cover flow dangerous.
8-CHARMBO CURIOSITY...didn’t draw well here but can swallow up ground when given some room to roam.
5-BUNKERHILL BILL...not much on paper but pulled on backside but :27.1 panel too tough to dent. Rolls late.
3-DAMON BLUE CHIP...been tackling tougher crowd in recent. Showed stout pace in lane vs. Northern Comp.
RACE FIVE
4-FLEETWOOD HALL...makes 100th career start. Recent form is very sharp. Can blast-off when asked. Edge!
3-MY REVENUER...warrior always reliable for stout closing kick. Just needs right timing to threaten in here.
1-TATER TWISTER...took couple of weeks off then came back & performed much better in return. On engine.
RACE SIX (PICK-4 - 3 w 7 w 6 w 2,7)
3-HOLIDAY SPIRIT...very gutsy in winning last after going first over on backside. Leon does have 400+ wins.
2-CHEEKY LITTLE MINX...versatile sort showed some gate speed in last & held fairly firm late in fast mile.
7-JLS TOO HOT TAJ...driven very confidently in last making move heading to turn 2 & on to victory. Sharp.
RACE SEVEN
7-PISTOPACKINPIPER...not much on paper these days but double-dips into a very appetizing situation. LIKE!
6-McGREAT...looking very sharp on the racetrack recently. Former Open pacer looms very formidable in here.
4-KING RICHARD...made a rare miscue in last. Prior showed some decent gate speed & held firm until late.
RACE EIGHT (DOUBLE - 6-2)
6-PRAIRIE FORTUNE...made HUGE backside brush in last to sweep into lead but got nailed very last stride.
3-MASSIVE LIGHTNING...can really turn on the afterburners in the lane. Watch for double-bubble binge here.
4-BOLI...tried cutting the mustard in last but wasn’t quite tight enough to finish it off. Tightening up now.
RACE NINE (SUPER HI-5 - 2 w 7 w 1,4,5,9 ALL THE WAY)
2-ALASKAN SEELSTER...relaxed for first 5/8s in last then went winging & made big m”oo”ve final turn. Nailed.
7-JAMAICAN COWBOY...made huge move on backside into the lead, was passed on inside & came on again!
9-CABRERA...outside post hinders but dips down in class to amiable level. Hope is to follow live cover last lap.
5-BALL DON’T LIE...was dull for some reason in last but does have the capability to tossing in fast final panel.
4-SOAKING UP THE SUN...very fast but somewhat unreliable. Depends on “which one” shows up for this one.
