Woodbine Mohawk Park: Horses to watch from February 20 - 24

Thursday, February 20

FLYING ART A (POPUP) was second over to the winner and just missed in three-horse photo.

BOBBY LOVE DAT (CLM20000) sat to the rear, flew home and won going away in big effort. A repeat effort is probable.

DEL DIGGITY (POPUP) challenged and won going away. Got claimed and should be smiling for the camera again.

QUAN BLUE CHIP (CLMHCP8/11000) was parked to the lead as the well-bet second choice, battled with the even-money favorite to deep stretch before giving way. Do not ignore in next race or two.

HORIZON SEELSTER (POPUP) rolled down the road, put away a modest challenge the last quarter and was a drawing-away winner.

Friday, February 21

SHOOT THE WHISKEY (NW8000FM) left, yielded, sat pocket, dug in but was outfinished by the late-closing even-money favorite.

LITTLE MOMENTS (NW2FM) sat to the final turn, tipped and rallied late with solid pace to earn a look in next.

CHASIN RAINBOWS (NW2FM) left well, yielded and was shuffled, rallied gamely and gutted out third through the lane.

BUCK DANCER (NW2500) tucked, let the speed settle, brushed and went down the road to win impressively.

BETTERNOTMACHME (NW4000FM) rushed to the top, met early pressure, shook it off, drew off when roused heading home and was on own late. Will give it another try.

EYE ON AN EAGLE (NW2) trotter finished fast and ran out of track from a distant 4th over in last and would be no surprise.

Saturday, February 22

JK TOGEHTER AGAIN (NW3) was an odds-on jogging winner and another win would be no surprise.

LIVINTHEBEACHLIFE (NW9000) finished high, wide and handsome gobbling up ground and foes to be a strong winner in latest.

HONOLULU VACATION (NW2) sat to the rear, rallied late and deserves a long look in next.

BLUE VENTURE (NW15000) hit stride late from the back of the pace and got up for 2nd to earn some respect in next.

Monday, February 24

DR JOE (CLMLHCP18/24000) put in a pretty fast mile in drawing-away win last time. Got claimed and is going to be hard to overhaul.

MR IBIZA N (NW4000) was parked to the lead, set a good clip, faced the winner's pressure the last quarter and weakened to be second best with the rest far back. Beaten favorite can atone in next.

B STONEY (CLMHCP30/40000) was a prohibitive favorite, wired the field in convincing win and is usually a threat.

HURRICANE CHEYENNE (CLMHCP30/40000) challenged the top one but was second best at 14-1.

MY BUDDY SAME (NW3) was in the pocket with little room, ran in and cut some pylons, recovered and closed best but was taken down. Can get it done with a little racing luck.
