?q=100)
Thursday, June 29
KUPER TROOPER (NW15000FM) rallied fast but late from the back of the pack and bears watching.
TOP MAST (2YO) prohibitive favorite roared by the field with stunning wide rally and should take a few more races.
CRAFT MADE (NW1) beaten favorite rallied too late from third over and would be no surprise in next.
CENTURY JALIMBA (2YOF) went off at over 30-1 and just missed in late rush. Maybe next time.
OCCASIONALLY SHARP (NW1FM) beaten favorite was sitting to the rear, finished full of pace passing a few foes and bears watching.
Saturday, July 1
DABARNDAWGSWATCHIN (NW25000FM) was used to the lead, got nailed in the last steps. Beaten favorite would be no surprise in next.
HP MOMENTUM (NW22000) finished fast but late from the back of the pack in latest.
COMMANDING OFFICER (NW9100) tucked early, brushed to the half and got away. Same move could be very rewarding.
MOMENT IS HERE (OntSS) brushed to the half, got nailed on the wire by fast-footed closer on the rail.
Monday, July 3
GAINES HANOVER (W4-7) beaten favorite began to rally into the final turn, carried wide to avoid a pulling foe, finished full of trot but had lost his best shot. Would be no surprise with a winning move in next.
NIJINSKY (2YO) seemed a little green at the start, broke, went to the back, rallied well and should not be ignored in next.
PIPEWRENCH CHARLIE (NW4950) was a handy wire to wire winner in last and would be no surprise with a repeat.
NIGHT SHADOW (NW2550) closed well from third over to be second best at over 50-1.
SENIORITA SOLO (OntSS) was in the pocket at 46-1 second best at every call to the pacesetting favorite.
Tuesday, July 4
WINNING ALLIANCE (2YOF) took the lead, yielded for the pocket trip, came uncovered and won going away.
SWIFT TALKER (2YOF) sat to the rear, rallied late, was bothered a bit, finished well but was not going to catch the leader.
BUSTING WITH PRIDE (3YO) sat nowhere, did nothing but showed a spark of late life and could come around in quick order.
FLYING FORMATION and GRATEFUL (NW4500) stablemates both closed with good energy in last race to be second and third. Barn always deserves a look.
