Mohawk: Horses to watch from June 29 - July 4
Thursday, June 29
TREMENDOUS PLAY (OntS) weaved through traffic rather handily finding a crooked path to the finish line and has to earn a few looks in next.
SOUTHWIND GENERAL (OntS) beaten favorite had too far to come but picked up a ton of foes in rousing last quarter.
D G NICKABOCKER (CLM15000FM) had traffic here and there but finished with enough at a whopping 74-1 in last to get some respect in next outing.
IN THE PIED PIPER (CLMHCP10/15000) veteran had them all following him home as he cruised through the lane to win going away.
BILLS FELLA (NW2) came wide into the lane at 8-1, battled with the favorite but came up second best with the rest of the field a few lengths back.
Friday, June 30
HOWMAC DANCER (2YO) went off at 128-1 in latest and finished full of pace from the back of the pack in an amazing :26 3/5 last panel.
TOTALLY RIPPED (NW8000) left to the top, yielded, sat pocket and rolled home much the best.
SOME ATTITUDE (NW4) took the lead, set the pace under long pressure and proved best with some late urging.
IDEAL WHEEL (NW4) left, tucked, seemed antsy in the pocket, pulled uncovered, launched a long uncovered bid and wore himself out.
DUNVEGAN DON (NW8) tucked, tipped in the lane, searched, ducked back to the rail with game finish and may improved in next.
Saturday, July 1
YOURE MAJESTIC (NW14000) went to the lead, yielded and retook, set the pace on an open lead and was a handy winner on a night when speed was giving way.
MACHAL JORDAN (NW6200) won going away with staunch rally and is always a threat.
ELLIS PARK (NW225000) was quick to the top, set the pace under stern pressure all the way and drew off the last quarter in impressive score.
MOHAWK WARRIOR (NW9000) was parked to the engine, got beat up on the front end by two challengers and battled gamely but tired from the abuse.
Monday, July 3
P L IDAHO (NW6800) was on cruise control through the lane and continues to impress in current form.
LADY CATERINA (NW4000) left well, tucked, got badly shuffled behind tiring and breaking pocket horse, recovered heading home and closed well at 24-1 to earn a look in next outing.
DUNBAR HALL (NW2) blasted out to the lead and left a field of gappers in his wake all the way home.
MEGO MOSS (CLMHCP12/15000) toyed with them in a front-stepping romp.
Tuesday, July 4
PHANTOM SEELSTER (2YO) finished full of pace from the back of the pack in last and can win more than a few with that move.

KAMERAN HANOVER (NW2) proved to be a solid second best on the board and on the track and will win in next race or two.
