Pocono: Horses to watch from June 8 - June 11

Saturday, June 8

BRUE HANOVER (NW6400) odds-on favorite wired the field and will be hard to defeat in next.

BLAZING DEO (W4-7) beaten favorite tucked twice and sat pocket but was outkicked by late close of the second-over winner.

REAL LUCKY N (CLMHCP20/25000) finished strong along the rail to get up for 2nd and bears watching.

PUT OPTION HANOVER (STALLION) went almost all the way on front end in his division at odds of 66-1 in last and should not be ignored.

Sunday, June 9

TRAY SURREAL (CLMHCP15/17500) put in a winning front-stepping effort in last putting away a serious last-quarter challenger.

EVER COMMON CENTS (NW2FM) finished with good speed from third over at over 50-1 and bears watching.

CAVIART AINSLEY (NW2FM) set a good clip but weakened in the late stages. Could be tighter in next and take it all the way.

STRAIGHT UP COOL (CLMHCP20/25000) finished full of pace up the cones to be second best to the odds-on favorite.

SON OF A TIGER N (NW2800) finished strong from the back of the pack in last around the track and can win this level with better trip.

Monday, June 10

JOHNNY O (CLMHCP10/12500) sat in, got shuffled as the field tightened in the final turn, tipped and slipped wide with good finish at over 40-1 to get up for second to the pocket sitting odds-on winner.

SIX DE VIE (NW1FM) tucked early, brushed to the third call, took over and rolled away in impressive romp.

DREAM BIRD (NW2) was parked to the lead, met pressure the last quarter but was a handy winner.

BIG BEN PELLINI S (NW1) brushed early around some trouble and won as easily as the board indicated he would.

CAHIRA HANOVER (NW1FM) tucked to the quarter, tipped into the lane and finished with a rush to just miss at nearly 70-1.

TWENTYSEVENBELOW (CLMHCP10/12500) well-bet second choice finished strong and wide....but late....in most recent.

Tuesday, June 11

FOXY JOYCE (NW2) had too far to come but finished with a flurry to be second best at over 15-1.

WALLET (NW2800) yielded, retook and was much the best in easy score last time out.

BOARDWALK BET (NW6400) was parked the mile and challenged to the last steps in valiant effort.

AMANDA (NW4) beaten favorite closed well from second over but missed by a couple of steps. Should be along in time in next.
