Title: Mohawk Saturday
Post by: whiptherabbit on May 17, 2025, 03:27:55 PM: Race#1-#5 HUNGRY MAN 6-1 ML Big back half last week, looking for his to ride the pocket in here tonight & find some room. McNair barn will be sharp tonight.

Race#5-#6 LARCENY 4-1 ML Auciellos pupils will both blast in here & try to sit 1-2. Seriously Hanover woke up last week as well. I think Davis leaves and finds a seam in the lane at a price.

Race#9-#4 ERVIN HANOVER 4-1 ML Two big qualifiers & might get 8-5 or more with Nijinsky in here with him. Should be a very interesting free for all for once.

Be nice to see Chantilly make her debut in the second as well.

Picks cant be worse than last night!

Best of luck! tmbz1

when he stroked those two tonight. tmbz1

She surged by. If the race was another 50 feet she would’ve wind by 4-5. Had it measured perfect! tmbz1

She still had the plugs in.

Just seemed to me that James hooked Doug, they separated, Chantilly looked like she was going to sprint away and didn’t really. Plugs were in but James was chasing her a bit midway on and had to give her a reminder about 50 ft from the wire when Doug came back to her a bit. I don’t see where she wins by 4-5 if it goes another 50 ft.

This is her first one off the bench so I’m sure she will be fine.

Exactly how I saw it.
