Woodbine Mohawk Park: Horses to watch from April 17 - April 20

Friday, April 17

TALK SHOW HOST (NW1000) veteran took a tuck, sat to the final turn, tipped, charged home to win going away in a lifetime best. Will be facing better in next but deserves a look.

ANGELS AMOUNG US (SPRING) after a near miss in prior, she left well, took the lead and never looked back in speedy score and should be the one to beat in next.

AUNT GERTRUDE (SPRING) left well, finished well and was second best to the speedy winner above. She posted a strong :26 3/5 last panel which was the quickest last quarter by the fillies in both divisions.

SUPERIOR DELIGHT (NW2500FM) beaten favorite was in the pocket, seemed a little racy, tipped but settled back in the pocket, rallied inside but was outkicked. Got claimed and can atone in next.

PIPERS LUNA (NW3FM) got away slow, raced 4th over and finished strong to just miss.

Saturday, April 18

ABSOLUTION (OPEN/FM) flashed good late speed from second over to be second best to the pacesetting odds-on favorite.

RIP THE PAGE (SPRING) pacer wired the field pulling away easily and had plenty left.

SWITCH (SPRING) trotter was 65-1, sat to the rear, rallied to the third call, closed stoutly and got second place.

JOHNNY ANGEL (NW3) was second over into the lane won going away.

SUGAR PIE HONEY (NW9000FM) trailed and had no interest as her stable mate sat pocket but weakened. Do not ignore 'Sugar' in next race or two.

AYEAYE CAPTAIN DEO (OPEN) flashed some good pace in late rally and should not be overlooked.

Sunday, April 19

MR WALNER FASHION (W3-5) tucked, sat pocket, went by easily to win by over five.

QUEBEC HANOVER (NW10750) put in a solid front-stepping effort at over 20-1 but was nailed on the wire by the late-closing odds-on favorite.

USAIN HANOVER (NW10754) was moving in the final turn, went wide as the winner pulled, got in tight and broke.

LIVINTHEBEACHLIFE (POPUP) wired the field easily again and will be looking for another score.

MR BLUEBIRD (OPEN) trotter sat to the lane, angled out finding a route and just missed gaining 3rd in 5-horse photo.

Monday, April 20

MY CLASSY QUEEN (N1FM) trailed at the half, moved, charged wide in the final turn, finished full of trot and just missed at over 60-1 to the prohibitive pacesetting favorite.

WOLVERINE LEGEND (NW1) rolled along on the front end, drew off the last half in a romp.

SHERLYN HANOVER (NW2FM) beaten favorite was third over and rallied strongly to just miss the equally well-bet second choice and can reverse the outcome with a longer nose.

CANUKEEPASECRET (NW2FM) was a fast-closing third best to the top two at over 60-1 as she roared wide from dead last.

MAKEMEALEGEND (CLMHCP18/24000) tucked, sat buried, rallied tentatively along the tight rail and should not be ignored.
