Top Pick Stats: 96/327 (-$135.00) Best Bets: 11/30 (-$20.10); Spot Plays: 11/31 ($3.60) Best Bet: MAKORORI N (Race 11) Spot Play: GET WINGS (Race 6) Early Pick-5: 9,10/4,8/4,6/5,6/5,7   $6.40 Late Pick-5: 3,6/3,5,8/3,7/3,4/2,6   $9.60 Race 1: 5 YEAR OLDS & YOUNGER, NW 3 RACES OR $62,500 (OS $95,500) LIFETIME. AE: 4 YEAR OLDS & YOUNGER OPT. CLM. $60,000. ALLOWANCES FOR AGE. (9) BLUE BAR has been on an every other pattern lately, but was a sharp three-quarter length winner when ripping off cover. His versatility makes it so he doesn’t have to completely fire out from post nine. (10) GRIN AND WIN stepped forward in his second start back when getting a patient drive. McClure faces an interesting decision from the high draw. (5) CENTURY LUCIFER went all the way last week from the same post. He should be one of the first to the lead. [DRF HARNESS: Get Harness Eye PPs for this card] Race 2: 5 YEAR OLDS & YOUNGER, NW 1 RACE (WINNERS FOR A PURSE OF $9,000 OR LESS 3 RACES) OR $9,000 LIFETIME. NO ALLOWANCES. (8) WOODMERE ROBI should provide a square number after getting a trip around the track in his career debut. He showed good gate speed in his lone qualifier and could be forwardly placed with Roy sticking. (4) PANIC RAY picks up a live catch driver in McClure after being patiently handled in his first charted action of the year. He should show some punch again on the big track. (1) CORONA SEELSTER continues his consistency at this level and frequently sticks around for a piece after making two moves. Race 3: CLAIMING HANDICAP $30,000 TO $40,000. ALLOWANCES FOR AGE & SEX. ENTER IN MULTIPLES OF $1,000. (6) SOMETIME SOMEWHERE got back to his grinding style last week and was a near-miss second. That trip suits him much better, and is one he should be able to work out if he gets away in mid-pack. (4) HF PANS SHADOW is another who makes a grinding trip work out most weeks. The post relief should allow him to get away better. (8) CENTURY INSPECTOR just held on after a speed try against a near identical field. McNair returns to the bike and should give him a chance near the lead. Race 4: NW $9,000 LAST 4 STARTS OR NW $22,500 LAST 8 STARTS. AE: OPT. CLM. $50,000. I tried in vain to get around (5) COLD CREEK QUESO, but the horses he faced last week are better than these. I think he is driven like the best horse and goes down the road. (6) ETHERIUM PARTY was a good third last week, and I thought the two horses to his outside got the slight jump on him. He draws well and could add some significant value to exotics if he works out a trip. (3) UNCLE SHANK A was a good second last week when making two moves. J-Mac returns to the bike and he gets post relief. Race 5: NW $6,000 LAST 4 STARTS OR NW $12,000 LAST 8 STARTS. AE: STARTERS FOR A PURSE OF $12,000 OR LESS LAST 2 STARTS. (5) ALL BETS ON TEX drops in class again and looks to be in a spot where he could blast down the road. He has had some tough grinding trips this year. (7) GINGER TREE FINNY is probably the most obvious on paper after last week’s race from off the pace. That effort should have him even tighter tonight. (3) GENTLEONMYMIND paced a massive final quarter while in the five path and scored at a huge price. The gate speed he showed two back was a welcome sight. The form is hard to deny. Race 6: NW $12,000 LAST 4 STARTS OR NW $30,500 LAST 8 STARTS. AE: NW $105,000 LIFETIME. (6) GET WINGS held decently to be fifth last week after making two moves in a quick race. If that didn’t take too much out of him, I could see another forward trip this week. (3) JORDY N has done little wrong in his six starts in Canada, and all five of his losses have come by less than two lengths. J-Mac should have him right there again. (2) RBSTENACIOUS T extended his winning streak to six last week and gets a fair shot at this upper level condition. We’ll see how deep he is. Race 7: 5 YEAR OLDS & YOUNGER, NW 1 RACE (WINNERS FOR A PURSE OF $9,000 OR LESS 3 RACES) OR $9,000 LIFETIME. NO ALLOWANCES. (3) CONTINUUM was a horse I was going to try on top in his career debut, but he was a weather scratch on that occasion. He showed just as much upside in last week’s qualifier; I think he steps forward in a big way. (5) LIQUID is inching closer to a win after just three career starts. He has plenty of closing kick and will certainly be a factor. (8) MY LEADING MAN got another check last week with an off the pace trip. Henry could use a little more gate speed tonight. Race 8: NW $2,500 LAST 4 STARTS OR NW $7,500 LAST 8 STARTS. (W/O $10,000 LAST 8 STARTS N/E). AE: N/A $1,105 P/S OR NW $30,000 IN 2025-26. (7) ASIAGO SEELSTER has been given chances in his last two efforts, and the results speak for themselves. The post switch hurts, but he should be put in play again. (3) LINCOLN LA MOOSE N came up well short in his first start back, but now gets a drop to a level that he should contend at if he can rebound. I’m not sure how much more money (5) SOARING NOW needs to burn, but he at least looked a little better last week visually. The money will find him again. Race 9: OPEN. (4) DUBLIN DASHER has been knocking at the door in the Open ever since his win four back. It’s Saturday Night doesn’t show up in this spot, which could allow him to finally trip out. I thought (3) PACINO HANOVER was an impressive third last week, especially considering the middle half that the leaders got. He closed from last and was making up ground all the way to the wire. I’ve been one of his biggest supporters over the last couple months, but in my opinion, he looms as a major danger at a price. (1) SAULSBROOK VICTOR pulled off the upset two weeks ago with a down the road score. After a week off, he makes sense with his early gate speed.

(6) ALWAYS B SWEETEST paced a strong final quarter to get right back on the winning track. That kind of trip can leave him susceptible in the long run, but he has enough gate speed to get him in good position from Mohawk’s winningest post. (2) BRAEVIEW BONDI A was better last week from off the pace. Roy may look to work him off cover again. A step forward puts him right in the mix. (4) FOREFATHER gets major post relief after a trip around the track. J-Mac returns to the bike after piloting him to a win two back. Race 11: 5 YEAR OLDS & YOUNGER, NW 2 RACES OR $30,000 (OS $37,500) LIFETIME. AE: OS 4 YR OLDS N/A $2,190 P/S IN 2026. (5) MAKORORI N never really looked like a loser in his Mohawk debut, and I expect him to pick up right where he left off. (2) SAUBLE AMBUSH just got up in the last few strides on debut and took a major step forward in the speed department. A similar trip seems likely. (6) TWIN B ALLIANCE had to make multiple moves last week and nearly held on for a check. A better trip can see him get a piece.
