1/17: 3w, no bias, off track

ROSE RUN NELLIE –

1/19: 7w, + speed

1/18: 5w, no bias

1/17: 6w, + speed, off track

IN THE SHADOWS –

Was 6^th at the quarter, power-brushed to the lead at the half making up 8 lengths, drew clear sharply

WESTSLUCKYCAM –

Rushed up first over, pressed a :27 2/5 third quarter against the sharp 6/5 winner, was shaken off but held okay in a solid final quarter

ENHANCE YOUR MIND –

Left strongly, parked a horse to a stiff :26 1/5 opener, yielded, retook the lead before the half and drew clear

SWEET JESSE T –

Trotter left from post 6 and was used hard pressing a fast pace and parked almost to the three quarters before clearing to the inside; excusably tired

1/17: 4w, no bias, off track

DESTINY’S DESIRE –

Had post 7, followed weak cover and finished sharply for the show from a tough spot

TRIPLE SEELSTER –

Left sharply, set a lively clip over a sloppy tiring track and held the place gamely
