Pocono: Horses to watch from Mar. 9 - Mar. 12

Saturday, March 9

PHANNYS MATTER (W4-6) trotter went to the lead, yielded and was shuffled, slipped off the rail the final turn, weaved and wiggled through traffic and got up for 3rd at over 30-1.

STRETCH THE LINE (GAME/CLAIMS) was third over and bothered by the breaker, took back, resettled and finished with good pace.

AFLAME HANOVER (NW95000) was second over, rallied wide the final turn and closed with good pace to be second best in latest.

SPRINGSTEEN (NW6400) veteran proved he was the boss in nifty wire to wire score last time around the oval.

REGAL ESCAPE (GAME/CLAIMS) was in traffic the final turn at over 30-1, had far to come but finished with good pace once free.

Monday, March 11

SAULSBROOK RAPTOR (GAME/CLAIMS) was a 'no doubt about it' winner from start to finish in last.

PLAY JET RAY (GAME/CLAIMS) let the speed settle, rallied to the lead and was a confident front-stepping winner last time out.

HASHTAG MONEY (GAME/CLAIMS) was pressed a long way and held well to earn the win at 9-1.

LIKE CLOCKWORK (GAME/CLAIMS) was tested twice on the front end and gutted out a second-place finish.

TODDLER TANTRUM (GAME/CLAIMS) went to the top at over 37-1 and dueled all the way as the favorite was parked challenging throughout.

Tuesday, March 12

MONARCH (COND) tipped second over in the final turn following the winner and chased with good trot to be second best.

BEACH TOWN BOY (NW4400) tucked early, pulled to the third panel, brushed to the lead and left the field far back.

FOUR SIXES (NW2) tucked, got shuffled, tipped second over the final turn and blew by foes. Should take another.

MISS MAJESTY (NW2FM) brushed and crushed living up to the $.05 on the dollar tote-board expectations.

SAID N DONE AS (NW4400) put in a game down the road effort but was nailed by the all-out favorite.
