Saturday, August 22
WHATS INTHE ESKY A (CLM20000) sat to the rear, rushed wide to the third panel and into the final turn, stayed wide and finished with pace at 37-1. Do not ignore in next race or two.
KERFORD ROAD A (NW9000) tucked early, got shuffled, tipped into the lane with late rush but it was step or two late.
STONE HANOVER (NW6) was parked a long way challenging the pacesetter and tired.
EXPLOSIVEBREAKAWAY (NW12000) rushed to the top, yielded for the pocket and was a game 2nd at 25-1.
FRANCO TOTEM N (NW12000) finished with good pace from a distant 3rd over and bears watching.

CLANCYS BAR (STALLION) rallied wide a long way and closed well but had much too far to come.
INNISFALLEN (NW4) followed wide the final turn bend with strong finish but the winner had gotten away.
CAPSTONE (STALLION) went down the road in game effort but was nailed by the pocket-sitting winner.

CAPTAIN COREY (PaSS) wired the field leaving the lot of them in the dust as he drew off.

Monday, August 24
WYOMING WIND (NW1FM) went to the top, yielded to the favorite's retake, rallied strong and won going away.
FATHER OF IRELAND (NW1) sat in, improved by the lane and rallied well at 9-1 to be second best to the pacesetting favorite.

Tuesday, August 25
AP HALL OF TRIX (NW2) tucked to the quarter, came uncovered, grinded up and proved easily second best to the strong favorite.
CHOCO CHARLIE (NW3000) was parked the mile in long challenge, tired but dug in to keep third place check.
DUNE HILL (STALLION) came wide with a big rush and won going away.
MISS MCKEE (STALLION) drew off in impressive wire to wire romp.
ALWAYS B LAUGHIN (NW2/2YOF) was used hard to the lead, set a pressed pace and tired. Beaten favorite can atone in next effort.
