Title: Mohawk Saturday
Post by: whiptherabbit on March 14, 2026, 04:52:10 PM
Early pick 5
.20 cent 2,6,7,8,9/3,5,6,7,8/8/3,8/3,4,6,9

Race#6-#3 VERTICAL SQUIRT 10-1 ML lots of pace to chase in here, 4 is compromised leaving by his post, see this setting up for a closer tonight, take a swing at a price.

Race#7-#6 SOUTHSIDE EDDY 5-1 ML ***BEST BET*** Will be fresh from the time off, last weeks qualifier was decent, he won’t be driven with kid gloves, expect JR to blast from the wings tonight.

Race#12-#1 NEEDABANKLOAN 5-1 ML Sneaky drop in class, #8 throttled a terrible short field last start out, don’t like #10 off the claim, love the rail in here wish he drew mid pack, like him the most in the finale.

Best of luck!

Trigger. You are brilliant. How did you know Cullen and McNair were going to be emptier than my gas tank? Especially McNair. His daddy’s horse looked like he broke down. Almost caused an accident. The horse looked awful in the post parade.

So sad, a great champion.  Horse won 30 / 90 races, almost 2/3'rds in the money, just shy of a $1mil...raced his lunges out for humans.  You know if he did this not as a gelding this likely never happens and would of been a sire, maybe his career never happens if he doesn't become a gelding, but nonetheless a beautiful living creature!  RIP Taurasi

No big whoop.

1,2,5 ran good even while all three were interfered and or affected while still miss winning the race by 1-1.5 lengths.  Least amount I wagered today on a race and I wagered on four, all my tickets posted in the forum, and today was a wiener.  I threw $306 of the winnings on all the KY future pools today too:

Handle ($)    % of Total    Payout ($)    Win/Loss ($)    Win/Loss %
223.40             100.00%    854.07                 630.67    282.31%

They never said a word about it on the simulcast. They have two people yapping about picks all night and they can't inform the public that Taurasi died on the track? We're all big people.

Oh fucking shit, you know someone in that room said that's what Standardbred Canada is for, the intellectuals that read.

Our show hosted by dummies for dummies with the occasional light bulb.

What about after a goofball race, what do you hear, crickets!

Does anybody in any industry report the actual goings on of anything ??

It's either fake news (lies) or non-existent reporting of facts.

Me too  ngc3

I bet 4 races today and less than 1/3rd of my budget!  tmbz1

Semi-retire a vacation at least in Florida and come visit - no live harness racing, but 2 decent t-bred tracks and tiki bars at night with chix!  ;D

I think another horse might have keeled over on the track now in the final race. Respect Our Flag lagged the gate and all the horses went back into the paddock. Now they are headed back onto the track.

Thats awful news. He has been lame for a while. But tonight in the post parade was the worst I’ve ever seen him. He was borderline crippled. He should have been scratched. May he rest in peace.

They have to drain every last dime out of those animals. McNairs must be hurting for money. That gelding has been lame for weeks.

well said tmbz1 tmbz1 tmbz1

the horse was a warrior that raced at the top level--and performed admirably

his 9 race win streak in 2024 and his win streak last winter was very impressive

Taurasi had guts--very sad

he hadn't looked sound in over a month


RIP

This is what happens when trainers want to inject sore horses instead of getting X-rays. Sure the X-rays are usually more expensive, but this animal has done more than just "Pay his way"! SMFH!

Excellent point!  The decision making realities can be horrible!

these these talking heads are specifically instructed not to talk about anything negative--like Sylvain, Moreau, Allard, or the drastic odds drop after the race starts-the long drag between races(even though Waples does on occasion say something)-the holes that are always open on the first turn or backstretch-soft racing-instead they are told to promote the  jackpot pentafecta--which is a flat out suckers bet unless its a huge mandatory payout situation

it is rather cotton candy media--even though we all know everyone watching is in their 50s or older-they pretend we are in our 20s.........-they could tone it down a lot with the fluff

I am not necessarily pointing the finger at Waples, Bratt, Blowe, Rallis or Rozema--they are just under orders

There are no words for WEG, they are the most incompetent lot you'll ever see with the kind of resources they have at their expense. They are responsible, along with Billy O'Donnell, for the destruction that has occurred up there in the last ten years. I predict in the next two years there will be racing only six or seven months of the year at Mohawk as there are simply not enough horses and even fewer owners to foot the bills that are outrageous.

Smart move because the prices get shorter.
You know that the odds dropping after the start is a problem too.
