Pocono: Horses to watch from March 22 - March 25

Saturday, March 22

UP THE CREEK (CLMHCP20/25000) had poor cover, rallied wide, got stuck the deep to the lane, finished strong and just missed the rail-riding winner.

OSTRO HANOVER (CLMLHCP30/40000) was third over as the outer flow backed up, finished well and bears watching.

BULLVILLE STEPHANO (NW6400) went wide, stacked 4-deep, rallied gamely but was nailed by the 5-wide, fast closing winner.

BORNINLOCKDOWN GB (NW4) jogged along never in doubt and should take more.

LYONS SURFING (CLMHCP30/40000) seems to love winning and there is no apparent reason to stop thinking he can win some more.

FEARFUL INTENT (NW9500) tipped second over late in the final turn and closed with good pace.

Monday, March 24

CANT SAY NO (CLMHCP15/20000) left, tucked, got shuffled, pulled, tucked again as the pocket opened, rolled by heading home and has to be respected in next.

MANOFMANYMUSCLES (CLMHCP15/20000) was parked, tucked, pulled as the lead changed a couple of times, raced second over to expiring cover, rallied wide but stuck out there a long way, closed with trot to be second best to the above foe. Beaten favorite can atone with better trip.

YOUNONOTHINJON (NW4400M) was buried to the final turn, swung out, wheeled wide, finished full of pace but ran out of track.

STONECOLDTREACHERY (WIN4-7FM) was parked to the lead, yielded, got shuffled the final turn as speed collapsed, slipped out, tucked again, rallied inside but flattened late. Tough trip but good try. Don't overlook.

CHAPOLIER (CLMHCP25/30000) was parked a long way to the lead, went down the road and was a handy winner....again!

MR CONTESTANT (NW9500) was parked, got looped, raced second over, ducked in to the third call, flashed some trot inside but was tiring.

Tuesday, March 25

FREDNECK (CLAIMS) took the lead, yielded, got shuffled, pulled, tucked the open pocket, rallied up the rail to win in three-move score.

STICK WITH CRAMER (CLAIMS) followed wide, rallied all out and just missed. Beaten favorite would be no surprise in next.

THE ARTISAN WAY (NW1) put up some good fractions, put away a challenger but was second best to the tripped-out pocket-sitting favorite.

CARDS A FLYIN (CLAIMS) was gapping second over but rallied late to be second best. Well-bet beaten favorite could atone in next.

WHITECOOKIE (CLAIMS) wired the field impressively and should be hard to catch with same effort.

LENNON HANOVER (NW1) finished wide with good pace and bears watching.
