Saturday, July 27

SUN OF A SHOW (CLMHCP20/25000) was parked to the lead, yielded, sat pocket and weakened in the lane. Should be tighter in next and show improvement.

Sunday, July 28

SHANWAY N (CLM15/17500) set the pace under pressure, got nailed by the quick-closing winner but held the rest. Front end speed only took home the gold in one race on the card so this one bears watching.

COUNTER OFFER (NW4500) finished strong from third over and just missed.

SEAL THE DEAL AS (NW2/2YOF) tucked early, pulled passing the third panel, rallied uncovered and won going away putting up a solid last quarter. Will be able to grab a few more wins.

KEYSTONE JOSIE (NW2/2YOF) beaten favorite put in a speedy clip but was nipped on the wire by the pocket-sitting second favorite. Should atone in next outing.
