Trainer Dave Menary has done an impressive job handling the stock on the Woodbine Mohawk Park circuit for owner Tom Pollack's racing stable. Menary has a pair entered in the first leg of the New Holland Pacing Series on Saturday night in a single C$30,000 dash carded as race eight on the Mohawk program that kicks off at 6:30 P.M. (EDT). Though Its Saturday Night (post three) has captured three of his last four races against Open company over the surface, Menary seemed even more excited about the prospects for Bruno No No No, a recent acquisition that landed post two in the eight-horse field. "I'm really high on Bruno No No No. I've been talking to Tom (Pollack) for a while about purchasing the horse and he stepped up," said Menary. Bruno No No No, a 4-year-old by All Bets Off, showed high-class potential during his sophomore campaign, and the New Holland will give Menary and ownership a chance to see just what that looks like in the coming weeks. Bruno No No No qualified superbly for his maiden voyage for Menary and then went on to dominate Open 2 company on March 7 with a solid 1:51 2/5 performance. "He's a great-looking horse," Menary said of Bruno No No No, who he compared to another big horse in stablemate Its Saturday Night. "They're both big. I'd say Its Saturday Night is more like Tom Brady and Bruno No No No is more like Rob Gronkowski." That Menary picked a pair of NFL winners for the comparison was probably not by accident. ► Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter Its Saturday Night arrived in Menary's barn towards the end of 2025 and has emerged this winter with four victories in eight starts this season and a bankroll already exceeding six figures. "He's a big-track horse," said Menary, mindful that the 5-year-old by Always B Miki finished second in the 2023 Governor's Cup over the Meadowlands surface. "I really thought he was a better horse racing from off-the-pace but in his last few starts he's been able to control the pace and still gotten home." Menary credits catch driver Louis Philippe Roy for much of the success that Its Saturday Night has enjoyed this year. While Its Saturday Night held on to win by a nose in the March 14 Open at Woodbine Mohawk Park, the trainer is expecting a better effort this Saturday. "I trained him this morning (Wednesday) and he was very sharp. Last week he was coming back after missing three weeks, and I think he's better on a seven-day rotation," Menary said. Menary will send out Whatchulookin At (post one) in Saturday's co-feature, a $30,000 Open 2 event and race nine on the program. "He got a little lucky last week," said Menary. "He was in the right place at the right time when Taurasi made a break." Driver James MacDonald managed to steer Whatchulookin At away from the incident and scored at 40-1. "I looked at the tote board before the race and was surprised he was 20-1," said Menary, who saw the price double at the finish of the 1:53 3/5 mile. "He's got a big burst of speed for a short distance. The rail may not be the best place for him." Missing in action this week but likely to be back next week is Brue Hanover. "I wanted to race him this week, but they didn't card an Open," said Menary. "He trained very well today." Stable star Ervin Hanover, last year's Breeders Crown champion in the Open division, is still a few months away from the racetrack. "He's just getting back right now and looks great," said Menary. "He's got a long year ahead of him and we're in no rush. I'm probably going to point him towards the Mohawk Gold Cup." That $100,000 Invitational coincides with North America Cup Night on June 13. Speaking of the rich North America Cup, Menary has a pair of horses nominated for the event. "Scorpion Seelster came on well towards the end of the year winning the Ontario Harvest," said Menary. "I'm very happy with the way he's training." Scorpion Seelster is from the first crop of Bulldog Hanover and emerged on the scene late, winning in 1:51 4/5 in October. Borderline Mobby, a son of Cattlewash, is Menary's other North America Cup nominee. "He was the opposite," Menary said, "He was good early in the year and then tailed off. He finished second to Beau Jangles once." The late-season disappointment was a problem Menary believes he has addressed heading into the 3-year-old campaign. "There were two things we needed to fix with him," Menary said. "We needed to geld him and put him on Lasix." The first objective has been taken care of and Menary is hopeful that Borderline Mobby will be an improved horse this year.
