SHARK FLIPPER (NW4) sat to the rear, angled out and closed well at 41-1 to pocket-sitting favoritee.

KEYSTONE CHARGER (NW3750) finished full of trot in side gaming out second at 12-1.

Monday, April 22

SEMI TOUGH (NW2) let the speed settled, brushed to the top, got nailed in the late stages in first start of the year. Prohibitive favorite will be tighter in next race or two.

RICKYBOBBYNTHEHAUS (NW1) wired the field convincingly in well-bet racing debut and should gain a few more victories.

LIVINONTHEDASH (WEISS) made a strong late move and just missed in latest; bears watching.

MEGHAN TIME (NW2FM) took the lead, retook past the half, dug in well and held well at odds-on in first race of the year and should find a few more fields to beat.

Tuesday, April 23

CCS MUNCHKIN (75/10000 CLM) put in solid down the road effort at 6-1 only to get outkicked by the pocket-sitting favorite. Well connected pacer might be luckier in next.

GATORS BEEN WINNING (NW6000M) rallied wide the final turn around poor coverand finished well but was outkicked by the late closing winner.

ANDOVERS TOUCH (NW3000) went down the road to be a handy winner on a night when speed was faltering and was the sole wire to wire winner.
