Woodbine Mohawk Park: Horses to watch from May 8 - May 11

Friday, May 8

RYDER ROSS (NW1) put in a solid effort as the second choice but was nailed by the odds-on favorite. Could get luckier in next.

A CLEAN DEAL (SBOA) tucked, brushed and was an impressive winner in speed score and will be the one to beat in her next.

RHODENA BLUE (NW2FM) watched the action from the back, wheeled wide into the lane and motored home in :26 flat passing all but the winner to be second best at over 40-1.

CHER HILL (SBOA) wired the field and had plenty left.

SWIFT TALKER (POPUP) closed well to just miss at 11-1 and will be heard from in next.

BLINDED BY DELIGHT (POPUP) yielded, retook and was a handy quick winner.

Saturday, May 9

GETS WINGS (W3-5) sat to the rear, hit overdrive from 4th over and closed a ton to be second best.

DIRTY DIANA (NW6000FM) was out the final turn third over and closed all out to be second best.

AVYANNA (NW20000FM) yielded, retook and was a speedy front-end winner.

A CLASS YANKEE (NW6000) closed well from third over in last and bears watching.

ODDS ON BULLFROG (NW3) closed well from third over as the second favorite and would be no surprise.

Sunday, May 10

HES TOURING (NW1000) sat in, had late pace, ducked in mid lane to clear traffic and bears watching.

USAIN HANOVER (OPEN) beaten favorite last time around atoned for his faithful with longshot uncovered game win and deserves another look in next.

BAYFIELD BEACH (CLMHCP12/16000) beaten co-favorite tucked, came uncovered, challenged but weakened. Got claimed and should not be overlooked.

Monday, May 11

RONDA MAY K (NW2FM) was parked a long way to the lead, met pressure the last quarter and tired. Beaten favorite should get a better trip in next.

ELBOWS UP (NW2FM) was parked to the lead at 7-1, yielded to the determined favorite, sat pocket and just missed in tight photo.

BUDDYVILLE (CLM20000) finished full of pace from nowhere and was second best to the second favorite and would be no surprise.

JIMS FIRST DATE (CLM2000) broke leaving, settled back, pulled to the half, rushed up uncovered, proved second best while tiring. Beaten favorite should get a win in next race or two.

CALYX (NW2FM) filly was parked the mile, grinded up, challenged the leader, put that one away but was second best to the pocket sitting going-away winner.
