Saturday, June 6

ENDURANCE (PaSS) was bet off the board, brushed and crushed and wins another.

RUTHLESS HANOVER (NW17500) odds-on favorite went down the road and was much the best in jogburger.

CAVIART CAMDEN (NW3900) sat pocket and won going away. Should take another or two for Burke barn.

NO TRESSPASSING (W2-5) saved, tipped in the final turn and just missed a 48-1 shocker to the pacesetting odds on favorite and bears watching.

LMC WAGON WHEEL (W6-8) pulled to the third call, challenged and rolled by easily opening up daylight.

Sunday, June 7

BEN ROCKIN (CLM7500) rallied wide from third over and won going away at nearly 10-1. A repeat would be no surprise.

GOLIATH HANOVER (CLMHCP20/25000) was the best of the field as the third panel in uncovered win. Got claimed and will be in the hunt.

UP THE CREEK (CLMHCP20/25000) was in the pocket, tipped to follow the one home but was second best. Also got claimed and will be in the hunt.

FARAH TRIO IT (NW9500) closed strongest and won going away.

JESS DOLL (AHDC) rallied wide around tiring cover, challenged the leader at over 12-1 but was second best in good effort.

Monday, June 8

ILL PLAY IT ALONE (CLAIMS) finished strong from the back of the pack at 90-1 to get up for third and is one of a few late closers that bears watching next time out.

RIVER NESS (CLAIMS) sat pocket and nailed it. Same trainer as top one should not be overlooked.

BUILDING BOOST (CLAIMS) finished full of pace from nowhere and just missed.

SANTAFES COACH (CLAIMS) was also wide and late in same race at 57-1 and should not be discarded.

CHUPPAH HANOVER (NW1) was the most convincing of the two from stepping winners on the card and will be the one to beat in his next outing.

VENDETTA BLUE CHIP (NW3600M) finished strong at 58-1 rallying 4-wide and will not be 58-1 in next.

Tuesday, June 9

GAUNTLET (NW2FM) broke before and after the start, settled at the back, moved to the final turn and finished strong. Beaten favorite can atone in next.

ABRUZZON (CLMHCP20/30000) wired the field handily, got claimed and goes for gold again.

WATER TORPEDO (CLMHCP20/30000) was second favorite on the board and second favorite at every call to the one above. Also got claimed and will there be a rematch?

DUSTY DUNGAREES (W2-6) finished full of trot from third over and 55-1. Nailed third in the four-horse photo and bears watching.

PINE BUSH LANDAU (NW1) was uncovered and won going away in last. Seems like another is going to happen.

MUSCLE JOE (NW1500) had poor cover, rallied wide and was second best at 17-1 to the pacesetting odds-on favorite.

NIGHT PHANTOM (W2-6) well-bet second choice brushed early and won going away leaving the odds-on favorite struggling for second.

HUGH HESTON (CLMHCP7500/10000) won handily in last and looked to have plenty left.
